Monterey K101 with ALPS SKCM Blue
« on: Tue, 29 March 2016, 23:54:56 »
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Working-Monterey-K101-Vintage-Keyboard-REAL-complicated-BLUE-Alps-SKCM-Switches-/152034107737

Anyone willing to place a bet on how much this thing is going to go for? The board looks pretty complete, and the switches look great.

Let me guess, oh! About 600000000000000000000000 doll hairs

Yep, you've got it. It's one that's really finicky in that it only works with Soarer's plug-and-play converter and really doesn't hold up to the other boards I have. It wasn't bad, but I feel like I can let it go. I need some extra money as it is. One day when I'm really making bank, I'll continue being absurd with way too many blue Alps boards, but I have my favorites as it is. :)

I'm a Blue ALPS hoarder right now too.  The market is an interesting place...

I wanna see this break the $700 dollar mark.  Not that I want to see prices soar, but just that it is actually entertaining to see these crazy auctions.  And it is a fellow GHer's. :)
