SOLD! Thanks for the interest!
Greetings! A bit less than a month ago I ordered a brand new limited edition WHITE Filco Tenkeyless with Cherry MX Red switches. Quite a rare board.
It came today. I washed my hands then carefully took it out of the box and typed on it for 10 minutes and put it back. Didn't even un-velcro the cord or open the keycap puller packet. Also didn't remove any key caps. It's about as new as it comes.

It is indeed like typing on a cloud of boobs. But during that long wait, I fell in love. I got a HHKB w/ Topre switches... typing on clouds of rubber does it for me a bit more that boobs. I *love* this HHKB. However, I do miss my arrow keys and function row. I could make do with this, but my one-handed combos are limited. Also, I'm waiting on a Kinesis which I'd probably use if not the Topres. It'd be a shame to let this board sit in the closet neglected.
Ideally I'd love to find someone with a like-new Realforce 86UB or 87UB that wants a highend Cherry board. But I know that's a tall order... so I'll consider just buying the Realforce from you too, or selling the Filco to someone that wants it.
Not picky which between 86/87, so if you want to get that new 87 that went on Elitekeyboards today and want to ditch your 86... let me know!
Asking price is what I bought it for... $255. (Qtan can't find more last I heard.) But I'll also pay $15 of your shipping. (which would be free for US if you want it Priority I think) For trades, I would consider paying the difference if your board is worth a lot more. And heck... for grins I'll throw in this brand new $25 (+shipping) Ducky leather tenkeyless wrist rest I just got today also. (Too hard for my taste.)

Thanks for looking! If all else fails, I'll just keep this in my collection. But I kind of feel guilty buying more without selling something.
