Cherry G86-62410 w/Browns on TaoBao (http://item.taobao.com/auction/item_detail-db2-14ffbfbc1355691360d92685c08dea4d.htm) - aka "Ricercar SPOS"

Photos show this is one with Brown MX switches and is not a rubber dome.

I buy most of my pu-erh tea through TaoBao using Obook (http://www.myobook.net/)--I recommend using them as your agent if you go the Taobao route. It would be much faster to just buy a G80 through didjamatic or ebay, but if you must have the G86 SPOS...

The best way to buy from Obook is to catch an agent online in Skype or MSN:
MSN: obookmsn@hotmail.com
Skype: obookskype
E-mailing them is significantly more troublesome.

After getting my White Otaku Filco with Cherry browns, I've decided that I no longer need my Ricercar SPOS, so I will take offers for mine. It's in like new condition as I only used it for a little while before the White Otaku showed up on elitekeyboards.

Erm, that'd be a ricercar SPOS, I believe.

Didjamatic just sold a Ricercar SPOS for $88.


/me gives a smug look all around, as if he was somehow responsible for Dija's good fortune.

Lol it's actually a somewhat common mistake...either that or I just pay way too much attention to a couple people's signatures and stuff.

Hyperliked, I don't get the joke?

The riceRcar spos is worth $85+15 shipping.  Again, the best brown cherry board I have ever touched.  It's my daily work driver.  Except for the strange layout of course.

Ricercar can't you just change your name to ricecar?  This is what i think of whenever I see your name:

My 1 cent bid on didj's new ricercar listing is totally going to win.

Btw Neptunebader is notorious for selling his keyboards for too little :)
