Now I know what happened to the posting ricecar made.. some geekhacker bought quantity #10.. :)

It was a good call tho on didj's part, these KB's are worth $80 shipped in my opinion.

FYI, I had already been talking to the original seller about them before they were posted here in this forum as I had been trying to find some donor boards with browns in them.  He made me an offer and I accepted, it just happens that some people on here bought a few before I did.  When I got them it was with the intention of modding some keyboards with a switch swap but the others I had ended up not being usable so I never completed the project.  I was going to hang onto them but I need some funds I decided to sell a few things.

They're great boards, IMHO worth $80 dollars shipped.  It was a fantastic deal originally but now that deal is gone, $80 is market value and a great deal nonetheless.

The G80 ones maybe... aren't these the G86 "Fakes"?

The artice no. on the ones we bought is G80.  The model number, for whatever reason, says G86.  I think there are some that have rubber domes.  The ones we bought have MX browns.  I am not sure which ones Dell is selling.

I never set the price on those keyboards, buyers did.  The first one I listed was at no reserve and bid to $74, then I was contacted and offered a price on the others which I agreed to and they were sold.  They were definitely Cherry Brown MX and not rubber domes, though there are others out there with rubber domes so be careful.

If you're looking for cherry brown mx keyboards with double-shot keycaps I have some used ones in great condition that I will be listing soon.
