Arnold sez: ITS NOT A CHERRY!

Seller states "cherry sliders" - I think this is untrue.  Neat layout though.
I think it's a dome.

It's got to be a slider over rubber dome.

That aint a cherry switch.  It's probably slider over dome, (thats why the casing is round).  It has a cherry stem... and cherry compatible caps.  But I'm almost sure it's a dome.

Quote from: ripster;221601
What I don't like about the guy is that he shifts his pics real Blue so you can't tell if the keyboards are yellow until you get them.  This happened to RicerCar.  Sounds like something I would do on my Ebay sales.


I'll just point out here that "significantly not as described" claims are almost never settled in the seller's favor.

When I pull the caps off my SIIG Minitouch Plus (foil foam dome whatevers) it looks just like those pictures except they're white.

They do, but in my humble opinion they're not a good fit.  The Minitouch Plus (and BTC-5100C) are shorter keys.  The function key row keys (with Esc, num lock, insert, delete) are even smaller, too.
