Possible Ricercar SPOS ends 5 hours
« on: Sun, 13 February 2011, 06:01:23 »
Auction ends in 5 hours.

The picture is of a ricercar MX spos.  The auction is not clear if it is a ricercar SPOS or not.  I have asked the seller and he states the photo is of the actual keyboard (not a stock photo).  If he is correct about this then this is a ricercar spos.

Starting bid $20 + shipping, BIN for $60.
YMMV of course.

I don't trust this seller enough I think he may have used a stock photo.

Dear 1xmnemonicx,

Is this picture an actual picture of the actual keyboard or is this a stock picture? I am looking for the G86 model which has "scooped" F and J keys (without nubs on them) is this the same kind? Thanks!

If that is a ricercar SPOS, you can just get them straight from dell for $70. So why screw around with a potentially sketchy ebay seller?

Picture is clearly stolen from the Dell site!

IFF it says 'MX SPOS' on the label, it's a goodun.

If I recall correctly Dell only sells the rubber dome version.  It's pretty much impossible to reliably find the MX ricercar version new from anywhere nowadays as it was a limited run to meet some purchaser's need for immediate keyboards (I think is what phaedrus said)

Yeah if this the pic is ripped off from the dell site this is most likely a rubber dome.

The model number stated has its first hit as the dell shopping site, so if they only sell the rubber dome, then either the seller can't read, or is mistaken about the cherry mx switches.
