More cheap cherry doubleshots

Starting bid  + shipping is about $80 for 6 full sets. He says he has 300 of these so if we did a GB, we could potentially get a bunch for cheap.

You can message the seller he will just send you keycaps if you want or that's what he told me last month or thereabouts. He quoted $12.50 plus shipping per set.

G81 1.25 always have the offset stems which are not MX compatible. Stepped caps lock and spacebar are also not compatible with many non-Cherry keyboard.

Seller only ships fed*ex, that's why.

I used to live less than an hour away, so were I back in Blacksburg, I could have picked up whole batches of these in my car.

These are not MX switches right?  They are MY if I am not mistaken?

yes these are MY.

Still it's a mostly full set of doubleshots for super cheap. If it included MX switches, I'd have bought the lot for desoldering. :p

This is why I asked.  :)  If it was MX I also would have bought them all and desoldered them all.  :P  Great minds think alike...

I've already desoldered 10 or 15 G80-8200 and G80-8113 for parts. They are available $10 to $30 on eBay with surprising regularity.
