Up for a one week silent bid (fund raiser for geekhack), is over TWO POUNDS of doubleshot and blank SP keys (all MX-Cherry).

[ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 35610[/ATTACH] [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] 35609[/ATTACH]

Please PM your bid to me.  (you can raise your bid with follow up PMs up till the deadline)  Bidding will end at 1045 US/Central on Wednesday, 28 Dec 2011.

This is a LOT of keys folks!  One could make a decent profit sorting these and selling custom sets.

Well, I probably won't be able to win this since I just spent all my money.  However, I'm willing to throw in some stake (money) into this if anyone wants to group together!  I'd also be willing to help sort, sell, ship, etc.

Hopefully my Terran modifiers are in this grab bag.

I ALMOST bought a whole box of keys from Fentek.

I'm glad for my marriage I didn't.


Yeah I think I might have to sit this out as well for fear of sleeping on the couch until the end of time lol. My guess is that It will probably go much higher!

2 lbs is about 907g.

I just weighed an 'R' from the round 3 orange gamer set, and its slightly less than a gram.  Do your own math.  

Conclusion = 225 is a bargain.
Keyboards:
Filco 104 MX Brown (Otaku) - FKBN104M/NPEK 黒い空
Ducky TKL MX Brown/Blue 80% (White) - 1087-F 白の空
