This isn't a bad price for someone looking for a type heaven, these are noted as being returned so it might be beneficial to email the guys at www.mechanicalkeyboards.com just to verify condition but I'd say these are good as new.
Also for those who don't know www.mechanicalkeyboards.com has a warehouse finds (https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=53) section which you will sometimes find a good deal in, I typically just sort newest to oldest and see if anything new shows up.

Does Topre have any variances in the switches besides the weights? 45 sounds like 45g--is that right? Cheap price to try out a Topre as I always seem to find them more near $200. Good find!

The type heaven has all 45g weighted switches.

Thank you! Any real difference in this Topre board and others with the same weight switches other than the usual of layout, keycaps, etc. Is the 'feel' pretty consistent in the same weight class?

Honestly to me every different Topre boards feels a little different but it all comes down to personal preference.
The biggest difference is in the keycaps, the type heaven has ABS while realforce boards will have PBT.
In my opinion the type heaven is a decent Topre keyboard especially if you don't want to spend the extra for a realforce and want a full size keyboard.
I gifted one to my mom over a year ago and she's very happy with it, I and as far as I know she hasn't had any issues with the legends wearing off yet.
