Damaged keyboards
« on: Wed, 31 July 2013, 09:48:08 »
Lately I've noticed several damaged Korean keyboards for sale that seem to be slow to move. They either have scratches, dents, or a "questionable" history. I know they are high dollar ($300+) but I'm wondering do they lose significant value because of the damage or are they not moving because of the price? I'm new to mechanical keyboards and trying to learn.

They're not moving because of a combination of the two things, as well as an influx of these boards into the market.

Everyone spent their monies on all the recent group buys.

I certainly wouldn't pay full price for a damaged board. Luckily my KMAC was pristine. Thanks moose!

But yeah, this has been a serious Wallethack with all the GBs running concurrently.

I joined one year ago and I don't remember my wallet being in peace over that entire period!
So that might be wallethack striking again but I tend to think like Moose that these boards are harder to sell because Koreans customs are easier to come by and also there are many different models available: Kmacs, Kmac mini, Kmac happy, LZ-S, LZ-GH, LZ mini, GONsss, Ducksss...
Offer wasn't that important few months back
