I'm still in; if worse comes to worse and it doesn't work with a soarers converter I'll cannibalize it's switches.

They have traded in the $70 + shipping range in the past, and for much uglier specimens.

To be honest, I never really went through much effort to make them work with Soarer's Teensy, it was merely a matter of curiosity for me.

I loathe the XT layout.

There may be an "XT-AT" switch so make sure that you look for that, too.

Yeah ideally I can keep it in its current condition; I would prefer to keep it that way. But then again, I can't speak on that yet considering this is obviously going to go into triple digit territory by the time snipers are done.

If somebody here wins it, I will be curious to know, in a month or a year, whether it is used, or kept, intact, or whether it is dis-assembled for parts.
