Topre Realforce with 45g uniform weighting
« on: Tue, 19 April 2011, 13:45:08 »
As the title says, I'm looking for a Realforce board with all 45g weighting. I do not want a modded board, I'm only interested in the stock 45g models.

If you know where I could buy one new (U.S. layout), please let me know.

Thanks!

Thanks for the Leopold link. I translated the pricing to USD and almost had a heart attack, when I realized it didn't include shipping from Asia to U.S. Ouch. Meh, who am I kidding, i'll probably get it at some point. I think I need to make geehack.org translate to 127.0.0.1 in my hosts file.

Check out the 'in the mail' section, someone bought a brand new 55g 87U from Korea. Final price came out to $473.

They bought their's from Leopold though. I bet you could get one around the $350 range using Taobao and the "Michael" buying agent.

The cheapest you can get a 55g 87U from anywhere is $350. Once you add shipping and agent fees it will hit $400 pretty fast.

You could always wait around until one of the people with a 91UBY decides to sell theirs, if you don't mind the Japanese layout.

Not to thread crap or advertise, but that person was indeed me.

I've reconsidered all the factors in my endeavor and realized all the people interested in my board had a good point.  I've now lowered it to $200 shipped.  Click above, if interested.

Oh ok...forgot the 55g part. Taobao has the variable 87U's for $300, in both colors.
