[WTB] or [WTT] Focus keyboard with calculator
« on: Tue, 24 February 2015, 16:32:13 »
Wanted, a Focus keyboard with built-in calculator (FK-3001, FK-5001, or FK-9000). Preferably with Alps switches, though if that's not possible, Alps clones will do as well. Heard rather mixed things about Futabas - I'm a big fan of Alps so far (especially SKCM White) and I'm not sure how well they'd live up. Calculator must work!

If you want to trade instead of just sell; I can trade one of my keyboards including most of the ones I've done one of my video reviews on;

-Cherry G80-3000 HFMGB with Cherry MX Blues & ABS doubleshots
-Cherry G80-3000 LPMGB with Cherry MX Blacks & lasered PBT (or POM?)
-IBM Model M 1370477 (blue label); practically unused (I got it NIB only months ago) (holding on to my mystery model M though xD)
-Viglen / Acer 6312TW, the curved model type
-Dell AT101W GYUM90SK with Black Alps, again practically unused (got it NIB)

pictures:










(the Dell was taken in my office - the lighting is a bit different on that one)

If you want to see more details of these keyboards; all but the MX Black Cherry have a review showing them from all angles as well as telling the advantages and disadvantages of each of them :) .

An ebay seller has several of these NIB and has been selling them for fairly cheap, but all with Futaba switches. I haven’t seen any Alps ones for sale that I can remember.

Cheers mate; strange, I can't make that result appear through searching at all, even on Worldwide settings. Doesn't appear to ship to the UK though. So still looking I guess :) .

If you can't find one with alps, I love my 8000 with MX-compatible futabas that I could trade. Shipping would be pricey though

Oh yeah, I just noticed xD . I could swear that wasn't there a minute ago xD .

I'd prefer a 3001, 5001, or 9000 to be honest, but uf I can't get one of them I might get back to you :) .
