Focus FK-2001 black
« on: Wed, 23 March 2011, 03:33:12 »
I'm selling a black FK-2001, no Windows keys. Metal plate is somewhat rusted and I don't have the time or the willpower to remove the rust. The case and the keys have been cleaned.

The keyboard works but it's very picky about USB adapters.

I'm asking $50 + shipping. Photos later.

I have a white version of this Focus board- did you find a usb adapter that works with this board? I tried the one recommended for all boards in the wiki, but it did not work....

Those "Photos later" would probably help a lot.

No, unfortunately I wasn't. Best thing to do would be to swap out the guts with those from a white/beige FK-2001 and be done with it. The switches are good tho.

I'm surprised nobody wants a BLACK Focus with bloody double-shots?? I guess someone would take it, if it was for free? :P

I'd bet part of it is your strange way of switching currencies between pricings. 40 Euro shipped is about $60, which is probably about the same as the original price of $50 plus shipping.

Given the worse dollar-euro exchange rates to date, $50 equals about 34 Euro. Registered airmail costs 16 Euro w/o packaging. I'm sure you'll agree that 40 Euro shipped is less than 50 Euro shipped ;)
