Nice find! Too bad it is pricey.

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

From the top, it does appear to be a legit blue alps (complicated and clicky).  At least, they look identical to the ones I pulled off of a northgate.  Great switches!

That being said, it does seem overpriced to me.

If theyre legit, shouldnt they have the Alps logo on them? I know the logo is faint but i didnt see any logo on the switch. It does look like Blue Alps but I wasnt sure

A lot of old alps switches have the alps logo on the bottom of the switch, not the top -- see here: http://deskthority.net/wiki/File:Alps_SKCM_blue_complicated.jpg
