Selling this board to help fund my purchase of a tenkeyless Realforce.

The keyboard was originally purchased in July 2010 and has seen a grand total of about 3 weeks of use since – the board is in immaculate condition. It's in SWE/FIN layout, but this is hardly relevant for reasons outlined in point 2) below. While Topre switch is easily the best I've ever tried, I'm selling this because

1) I have rather limited deskspace and a huge mousepad (since I use the keyboard mostly for fps-gaming) –> having a fullsize keyboard is not optimal, as I have to move the board to extreme left to accommodate the mousepad. This brings me to problem no. 2...

2) This board is black, and those Topre engineers don't beat around the bush when their heart is set on making a black keyboard; as you might know, the legends are practically impossible to see in anything but bright daylight... While I do touch type fairly well, the unorthodox position of the board as described in 1) makes it impossible for me to type with any kind of accuracy while gaming.

Right now my plan is to sell this and buy 1 tenkeyless Realforce and 1 full-size white Realforce, and switch the white keycaps to the tenkeyless; for me, that would be the best keyboard imaginable.

I'm asking for 120€ (+ shipping in EU), which should be a fair price... Failing that, feel free to make an offer I can't resist. I don't have the original box of the board but I will pack it well and throw in an unused set of lavender WASD-keys and a Topre keypuller (not recommended but an interesting curiosity item).

AND cos I'm such an awesome chap, should the buyer so wish I can get you a set of green/yellow/red Topre-modifiers, which are easily available here in Finland but not at all available elsewhere, for the local retail price of 29,90€ per set and include them in the package. You can check how they look via the following links:

Green: [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 27895[/ATTACH]
Red: [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 27896[/ATTACH]
Yellow: [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 27897[/ATTACH]

I also have a blue ClackFactory skull keycap that I'm willing to let go for a proper price. As I don't know what a proper price would be, I leave this for the market to decide.

Shipping to NJ 07630 would seem to cost US$ 40 or US$ 53, depending on whether the weight is less than 2kg or between 2–5kg.

Got an offer by PM, 120€ including shipping; not enough, for now at least.

I'd appreciate it if people made their offers here, for transparency's sake.

Bump!

Sorry everyone, I have had a few things going on, keeping me from frequenting these boards...

As an update, this keyboard is still available and hasn't been in use at all since the time I posted this ad.

Any chance that we could possibly get you to grab some of those modifiers? I've been looking for an Enter modifier in that shape, for some time.
