Finally have got some time to start letting go of some of my keyboards. Hasn't been a good 3-4 weeks, those of you that know, know, those that don't doesn't matter.

Going to start with one of these knowing how popular they are, though I've the same feeling about buckling springs as KL. Pics are here. Go take a look. They have not been photo-shopped. My friend is just a damn good photographer and his camera and lens is the bomb. I will honestly tell you it does not look as nice as the pic but nice enough for sure, totally functional and with cables etc etc. Those of you who have bought anything from me before should know how I pack my ****. So no worries there. And yeah, It would take a goddamn tank to damage one of these anyway. Or USPS.

I've checked with the post office already and even opened a corporate account. Shipping is 54usd (The usd is just too low now hence the high shipping. 1.21?? Ugh.) max based on 2.5 kilos. Arrives in 10-14 days. It's about the same for Europe as well and i'm deciding if I should post on Deskthority as well. I have not decided on a price yet and I'm in a big rush now, I'll decide on a price later on but please do pm me your offers so i can save some time. In a little need for funds but I am not desperate to sell so please do not low-ball me unless you do no intend to buy anything from me ever again. Here are the pics. I'll be back later tonight where I think most of you guys would be awake.

Thanks for viewing.

It's hard to tell the condition of the keyboard in those pictures since the color isn't at all close to accurate. Not that they aren't nice photos.
