Title: [FS] 5x Alcatel MMK w. Cherry doubleshots
Post by: chyros on Fri, 02 December 2016, 08:30:10
I already had one of these before, but yesterday I found another five at the recycling centre. I could do with the money so I'm putting them up for sale! :)

FOR SALE: 5x Alcatel 4049 MMK telecoms keyboard
These come with Cherry MX black and thick Cherry doubleshots. There's some really funky keycaps on them, it's got a speaker, telephone ports, what appears to be a network cable, some sort of card slot, and a huge amount of the caps have LED windows.

The caps are Cherry's thick doubleshots, but the lettering isn't black, it's actually more of a dark, gunmetal grey, quite funky-looking actually. The telecom caps are still thick, but appear to use rimless pad printing instead.

These are in various conditions. None of them are cleaned, but there's really just a slight bit of dirt on the top, they're really not that dirty overall. The cases are ever so slightly yellowed on all of them, but none of the keycaps seem to have yellowed at all, they seem extremely white. Two have no shine on the caps at all as far as I can see, one has slight shine, and two have quite a lot of shine.

Note: Some of the keycaps like the Alt keys, windows keys and enter key are a non-standard size because of the funky layout. Also, it comes with some sort of serial connector and almost certainly uses a weird protocol, so getting these to work on a normal computer may be challenging.

Asking £40 plus shipping for the non-shine ones, £35 ones for the shiny ones (least shiny ones go first unless specified otherwise).

Are these keys the same beige as the classis black on beige?

I don't know, these seem especially white to me.

It seems that they are more close to white than to beige. I was thinking on mix and matching them with some of my beige; but, I think it is not a good idea.

I might try them with a Dolch theme, if not I'll make them work on their own and the blue mods maybe.

Dolch should look awesome; however, I do not have any.

Yes, they're very white. Especially if any of your keys have also yellowed it'll probably show.
