I alluded to this in another thread, but I'm trying to get rid of my blue board in favor of something less clacky (and tenkeyless). It is in absolutely fine working order, only 3 months or so old, but the housing is questionable. I tried to paint it black, but the results were only ok. It'll come with white side-printed PBT keycaps as that is the last set of caps I have left that fit it. I'm entertaining any reasonable offers or trades (Looking for a filco tenkeyless with browns or reds, but I'm open to others.)

(click for moar)

The most noticeable spots where the paint is ehhh are the top right corner where the filco logo is painted over, the bottom edge of the top of the housing, and the feet/foot wells. And yes, I'm aware no one really wants a crappy second hand board, but I figured someone could fix this housing or find another. I was looking for one, but got impatient.

I may even through in one of the metal Filco Esc keys from this group buy and a set of 40a o-rings if the offer is reasonable enough.

jpm804 is offering a pretty good deal ($90 shipped) on a Leopold TKL with Red switches that's basically unused. I'd say pick that up and sell this one. :B

I saw that. I don't know how I feel about leopolds compared to filcos.

I own both the Filco and Leopold TKL in Cherry Reds. I've retired the Filco to keep it as collector status and use the Leopold fulltime now. I'd say, they're about the same. Filco feels a little more crisp, but tbh, it might just be the McRip effect. For $90, you can't go wrong getting a great board.

Edit: Oh also, I have a Leopold Otaku TKL with Cherry browns (pics below). Send me a PM if you're interested in browns instead of reds. We could work out a trade for those PBT keycaps also
