I dunno, if this is intrest to anyone, but bit cheap compared to other options might be serious error, but has been up for a few days atleast:
http://www.verkkokauppa.com/popups/prodinfo.php?id=30228

2.40€ for set, compared to 30€ for other colors, which inluded other special keys too...

Note:
Sadly they have postage options just for Finland, Sweden and Estonia..

This one also includes a keycap puller of some kind, so it's one good deal.

Put an order in for a few sets, although I have no plans to use them...

ktkr · « **Reply #5 on:** Mon, 20 December 2010, 02:29:30 »

Aaaand they're shipped. Pretty good deal compared to EK's 15 bucks per set.

It's always good to buy things you don't really need just because it's cheap. Perhaps I'll put an order for a few sets for my future Topre board.

Good idea. I did that with the first doubleshots round and it worked out fine for me.

(I sold them).

I'm just ordering one set because I'm sure I'll get a Realforce eventually. Also that key puller alone is worth the 2,40€.

Yep, the Topre keypuller is all sorts of awesome. Much better than the cooking utensil Filco has.

Get some one in Finland/Sweden/Estonia to work as proxy or mail them and try to get them sell those to you

patmok · « **Reply #15 on:** Sun, 09 January 2011, 15:26:20 »

Would anyone be able to buy them on my behalf and post it to UK please? I will cover the expenses.

I tried to get my Swedish friend to order it, but he can't read the Finnish site

You've got yourself a volunteer mister. As it so happens, I was planning on heading over to Verkkokauppa tomorrow to test drive the Realforce 105UFB (lucky me, they have it on display) and see if it would very much insist on coming home with me (the usual story: the Model M is not an option for a night owl coder like myself). I'll pick up a set for you while at it. PM me your address and I'll have them shipped out tomorrow evening. I presume you could cover the expenses via PayPal?

As I can see this turning into a "me too please" thread quicker than I can type "I have become a shipping agency overnight" on a mushy rubber dome I'll put it this way: I'd be happy to pick up FOUR more Blue-Lillac sets while at it. First come, first served, post below please and then PM me your details, deadline in 14 hours. After all the knowledge I've picked up here after realizing what keys I grew up programming on (and finding the board still in my dad's closet next to an even older friend), it feels good to be able to at least give a minimal little something back to the community. Thanks everyone! I'll be around fighting bankruptcy by keyboard like the rest of you.

Addendum: the price has also dropped to a mere 2 euros a pack at some stage (the Realforce is also down to 169.90 €, saw it quoted at 190 in earlier threads here... wonder if that is some kind of response to The Keyboard Company having also started offering them?).

patmok · « **Reply #18 on:** Mon, 10 January 2011, 16:27:26 »

Yes please! PM sent, many thanks yak

EDIT: Not too sure if PM was sent successfully, could you reply to the post if you got it please

yak · « **Reply #19 on:** Mon, 10 January 2011, 16:34:14 »

Yup got it, reply sent.

PM Sent. Thanks Yak!

yak · « **Reply #21 on:** Tue, 11 January 2011, 06:56:23 »

Ok, the relay offer is now closed. Caps will go out to patmok and jnsjr later today.

patmok · « **Reply #22 on:** Tue, 11 January 2011, 07:38:05 »

Thanks yak! PM me the amount once you know how much shipping is and I will send you the money on paypal

Many thanks!
