Title: NIB SMK-88's

Check it (http://cgi.ebay.com/Compact-Cherry-Mechanical-Switch-Mac-Keyboard-USB-SMK88-/350302008264?cmd=ViewItem&pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item518fa073c8#ht_7207wt_902).

I remember buying two of these brand new from DSI for $35 ea a couple of years ago.  And mine (one of which I still have) had BLUE Cherry keyswitches.

These are ridiculously overpriced and likely have blacks.

It's too darn bad that they are going for so much now. Recently you could find them for $80 and just before that I saw them listed for $60 something. I had a couple broken ones one with cherry switches and the other with ALPS switches. I thought the boards were quite nifty and I liked the size, they also felt pretty good.
 
It coulda/shoulda/woulda been a very competitive board but...
