Should I buy this?
« on: Tue, 18 October 2011, 02:12:11 »
A little advice please. I'm new to mechs, and I've been offered to buy a keyboard model I haven't had a chance to try and that I'm not sure if I'm going to like. It's a barely used Topre Realforce 88U for $175 shipped.
Wasn't really looking for one but I recognized the name from here. Do you think it's worth taking a chance on it for that price?

I would thats a good price and if you don't like it your likely to get close to what you payed for it if you decide to turn around and sell it

I wouldn't buy a realforce if i had trouble justifying the price. If you can't pay your bills, I don't recommend spending 200 bucks on a keybaord at all.
keyboards!

No no, I can afford it, it's just that I'm having trouble deciding. I do realize though that I really should be asking myself rather than others.

If you're not going to share the source, then this doesn't belong in this section of the forum.
For that price I would jump on it though.

Second that, a realforce for under $200 is a great deal and even if you don't like it, I'm sure many people here would glady buy that for $175 + shipping off of you.
