[attach=1] Here's a image.
Does someone have information about this board? According to the seller it is mechanical, and the switches feel like a Cherry MX Blue.
-
Have any other pictures? Maybe of the back or of a pulled cap? That picture and your description aren't too helpful.
-
Model sticker and switch shot would definitely be useful.

I'm always doubtful of any older board that doesn't have at least an inch of body above the top most keys.
Plus, I like somewhere to put my pencil :D
-
The layout itself reminds me of omnikey but not the case. As you mentioned on reddit, it does have a reversed spacebar, as thought, though kinda hard to tell from the pic. Likely mechanical but I have no idea what. Ideally the seller would pull a cap for you, as well as take a pic of the back label. If I had to warrant a guess, I'd say it is some sort of White Alps or White Alps clone.
Edit: Open question. Has anyone ever seen a RD where you could do a reverse spacebar mod. (without modification to the keyboard).

Thanks for your reply. I have already sent a message, but he hasn't responded yet.

Doesn't look mechanical, but it may be worth getting for the keycaps. It's only 10 euros.

I don't think it's mechanical, but the keycaps look Cherry MX compatible.

I've seen rubber dome keyboards which have alps compatible keycaps. While the ones I've seen have specific spacebars, I would guess there's some that have spacebars you can flip.
Ugh are these the switches that look like futabas but aren't? I always guess futabas on switches that look like these. Those keycaps might be mx compatible but for some reason, I've got a gut feeling that they're slightly off. So I'm not sure :(

Thanks for the reply, I'll talk to the seller about it.
