I've come to the conclusion that the only way to make my NovaTouch usable (for me) is to add a Topre 23UB external numpad. Now, I'm not saying I am actually planning to do so, just that if I ever want to actually use the NT on a regular basis, I'd have to get one. So what is considered a decent price for one? I see that a Japanese vendor is selling them for about $115 through Amazon, but I don't know if that's considered good or bad by the Topre fanbase.

Well here they are on EK
http://elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=topre_keyboards,rf_numberpad
109 dollars and EK does local pickups if you call or email them (they are located in Los Alamitos)

That's about right. If that's with free shipping, then they've got Elite Keyboards beat. EK wants $109 + shipping.

yea by all means if the amazon listing is free shipping and no tax then it will be cheaper
-
Yeah they're usually like $110 and I don't see them on classifieds that often.

I've had a 23U for a few years now. I went through several others before getting the 23U and nothing even comes close, which is why you don't see them in the classifieds. It'll be the last numpad you'll buy.

Wasn't all that long ago, before the new batch arrived, someone was offering wads of cash and a couple of rare Clacks for one.
I spent weeks searching, to no avail :))
