Post by: ideus on Mon, 09 November 2015, 17:23:29: It is similar to the set I have, it is an awesome OG Cherry set with A Profile bottom row, but mine has 2.75u shift key.

The bottom row is B-profile on this and every 1800 I've seen.

You right, I wrote A, but I meant the tallest ones, meaning B, thank you.

You're incorrect.

A-profile is the tallest profile.

Almost all 1XXX and 3XXX series Cherry keyboards with dyesubs or doubleshots have an A-profile bottom row, but every 18XX has B-profile. I have not seen an example of an 1800 which is exempt from this rule, although it's worth noting that GMK DOES have the moulds for 1800-unique bottom row keys in A-profile.

Just to be perfectly clear and to avoid any further confusion here are pictures :

Post by: ideus on Mon, 09 November 2015, 17:52:16: Just for the record my set's bottom row caps have the tallest profile -A-, so I was right in the first place. I do not know about the other keyboards.

Which set do you have? I would be very interested to see a Cherry 18XX/19XX keyboard which breaks the rule.

I am not sure about its origin, but it has A profile bottom row with 1.5u modifiers and standard 6 pack and num pad.

Standard numpad and 6 pack means that it will be from a 3000, 3100 or 1000 series Cherry keyboard not an 1800/1900 series. As I said, 3XXX and 1XXX Cherry keyboards with doubleshots and dyesubs are almost always with an A-profile bottom row.

You wrote the opposite bellow and I followed you, just adding to the confusion, but I think now we are in the same page.

Your original post was very misleading. It seemed obvious that you were saying the 1930 in question has an A-profile bottom row.

We are both right now; but, we were both wrong before; I accept that my first post would be misleading also.

It is very clearly listed as a G81-1930HSU. I thought all ebay and paypal does lately is protect buyers?!?

A few months ago I ordered a WKL 1800 but received a winkey one and eBay sided with the seller saying that it wasn't damaged so I couldn't do anything about it

No worries, just hoping I can return it

Post by: mason on Fri, 13 November 2015, 15:28:15: Just wanted to say the seller handled the situation very professionally. They told me to keep the board since return shipping was too expensive.
