Title: filco majestouch oem keycaps - worth selling
Post by: eurekastreet on Sat, 26 March 2016, 06:59:29

Bought a filco majestouch a couple of weeks ago with a qwerty layout. I used them for 2 weeks until my replacement blank keycaps arrived (I'm a french azerty user, slowly switching to bépo). I have no use for the oem qwerty keys (see the attached pic for the full layout) : is it worth trying to sell them on the classified section, and if so, how much should I ask for them ?

Typical ABS keycaps are not expensive -  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Backlit-ABS-104-Keyset-Cherry-MX-Keycaps-/331782959247?hash=item4d3fce308f:g:Mh0AAOSwB4NWx81N

So to answer your question - Keep them... If you chose one day to sell your keyboard, you'll have more chances to get rid of it.

I was going to see if they were the yellow keycaps, in which case I might have been interested ;)

But BucklingSpring has a good point - keep them for now.
