Best option on 55g domes for HHKB?
« on: Wed, 01 March 2017, 10:53:48 »
Hello, I saw the drop on MD and was just wondering if that is my best bet for 55g domes for my HHKB?

There's a chance you find a used board cheaper (maybe w/o caps or some damage) or someone starts producing 3rd-party domes.

Depends on how desperate you are to have 55g right now =)

This drop seems to happen regularly, so you could wait for the next one.

how much are the 55g domes worth to you?
FWIW, i'm seeing 45g+55g swapped RF87UB's sell for $150-160 on /r/mechmarket.

You never know, you might find you really like the 45/55 RF87 like I did.  :thumb:

If I can sell the RF and spacebars for $160 it will be worth it for me. Surely that is doable right?

...and if you had to drop it to $150... $140? would it still be worth it? Eventually someone will buy it. the 45/55 setup is actually rather nice to type on.

someone will buy the 45/55, but you'll have to be patient
