[Price Check] RK-9000 for parts
« on: Mon, 30 January 2012, 10:33:39 »
I have a Rosewill RK-9000 w/ MX Blues modding project that I am abandoning. Board is still fully functional, I have removed the LED's and sanded the bezel because I was going to have a custom paint job put on it and put a laser cut plaque put over the LED area. When the LED's were removed I had to jumper the + rail to the controller because the trace was disconnected with the LED's out.

I was thinking of listing it as parts and was wondering what a fair price would be considering the mods done to it.

Hey i might be interested. Btw, is the board still working? or it no longer working and only has the Cherry MX Blue keyswitches? Can u send me a PM of a price u have in mind? I would like to continue your project lol.

In a simplier way, If i buy it, can i use it? will it work when i type on it. That the main point.

Yes the board is still fully functional minus the LED's. In fact I am typing on it now.

Considering it's still fully functional, I bet you could probably get something like $70-$80 shipped for it.
Risen from the dead for a model F.

Wyse buy colors were GSY for the dark grey, GBA for the light grey, and BBI for the fonts.

Might be interested in it for the blues but that wouldnt be great value since the board is completely working.

They are $80 brand new. $50 should be doable.
