Wow. Great find!
I added it to my watch list, even though I really don't like single unit BS keys...curious to see how this takes off :$
-
Doesn't the AT use two-part keys?
I would go after this if the shipping wasn't $111. Also, I'm sure that the price will get much higher than $20.

You can always swap them out with two-part keys.

We get hit pretty hard with shipping from US to Australia.

You Aussies have too much money anyway, last I heard there was literally gold growing on trees :P .

Yeah, but you have to fight through seven waves of drop bears to get to it.

No gold on trees around here :(

Buyer beware: shipping for me says "ask seller". It's a pet peeve of mine when someone marks shipping way up; it seems borderline dishonest when 99% of sellers are doing cost recovery only on shipping.

I'm on mobile, but when I touched that, it listed normal shipping rates with $18 USPS Flat Rate shipping.

On desktop I see the shipping price in the usual place, along with a few options for shipping.
Something interesting is of the three choices:
* Economy Shipping (USPS Parcel Select®),
* Expedited Shipping (USPS Priority Mail Large Flat Rate Box®)
* Standard Shipping (UPS Ground)
One is more expensive than the others depending on where you're sending it. E.g. for 90210 expedited USPS is cheapest, while for 10101 standard UPS is cheapest. Maybe something to do with UPS zones?

Isn't an AT ridiculously heavy anyway? Maybe some tracked shipping thingymajigbob with heavy packing on a lead-weight keyboard...?
