NIB Cherry G80-2551HAD with beautiful doubleshots
« on: Sat, 31 December 2011, 06:26:22 »


I have a few brand new in box Cherry G80-2551 HAD with MX blacks to offer.
They were never touched before (of course except one for the photos =) and have really beautiful doubleshot key caps with additional blue top and/or front face labels on some caps.
You can get complete keyboards or sets of keycaps. (to lower the shipping cost if you only need the caps)
One keyboard/set of caps is 30€ each, if you take two I go down to 25€ or down to 20€ for 3 or more.
Shipping from Germany is of course on top!

Here a few pictures:

If they are like the colored caps i have from Cherry, sixty confirmed they are doubleshots and then the colors are pad printed. Best pad printing i have ever seen. Looks amazing with high contrast.

First of all: Happy new year!!

I have to say that all 9 keyboards were gone after a few hours on deskthority, nobody here at geekhack was fast enough, sorry! So everybody who got no PM from me till now didn't get one...  :(
With all the lucky ones I will handle payment and shipping in the next days.

BUT:
I realized that these boards seem to be really in great demand..
So I will try to get some more of them!
I am not absolutely sure if I can get more and if I can get them again that cheap, but I will try my very best!
So please reply here under this post again if you are really interested in one (or more).
Ideally with number of boards/sets of caps wanted and country of shipping.

Wow, that will be some hard work, if I get more boards.
I have NO keycap remover tool and up to now 10+ people are interested in caps only...
That would be way more than 1300 keycaps to remove... :help:

GOOD NEWS:
The friend who organized these boards agreed to empty the complete stock of his company for me.
That means that I get 20 more boards, but then there are absolutely none left!
He is going to bring me the Keyboards on Friday.
So when they arrive I look here and at deskthority for the timestamps of your posts to see who will get something...
Another good news is that I can manage to keep the price at 30€ per keyboard/set of keys.
Only the discount to 20€ for 3+ boards is not possible any more, but I decided to keep the 25€ price per piece for 2+ orders.
I hope everyone will be pleased with that!

Tarkoon, looks like the option to ship to the USA by DHL is as follows:

- Up to 120 x 60 x 60 cm => 47" x 23.5" x 23.5" (same size for all weight level below):
- up to 2 Kg 33 EUR online price (35 EUR retail price)
- up to 5 Kg 34 EUR online price (36 EUR retail price)
- up to 10 Kg 45 EUR online price (47 EUR retail price)
- up to 20 Kg 66 EUR online price (68 EUR retail price)
- up to 31.5 Kg 87 EUR online price (89 EUR retail price)

Buyers in the USA, would you be willing to pay a little more to get the full, new keyboard?  If so, I don't mind being the USA re-distributor.  It is only worth the extra cost and effort it if you want the full keyboard.  If you just ship one keyboard from Germany to the US, it would cost 33EUR.  A 20 Kg package at this size should fit 8 or 10 keyboards, that would be 66 EUR (divided by however many keyboard) plus maybe $11 USPS ground parcel.  

Tarkoon, would you be able to ship all the USA orders to me, including keyboards, and I re-ship to people in the USA?

That's a good idea if the others agree. The shipping costs are as you wrote. Uninsured bubble mailer would be 3,45€ or 7€ for more sets in one mailer.

It's way more rare and a cooler color so in my book it beats the red one. But at the same time it's pretty much impossible to find. Until the ANSI version of that board popped up on OTD, sixty had never seen another one like it (outside of his own).

I'm sure it's much more rare, before even knowing more about it. But from what you said about it, it's basically next to impossible to find one ;(

Though in the end the red one is much more vibrant :cool:

+1 on this, after thinking for it for a while longer it was all gone, should have followed the first rule of GeekHack "Buy first, think later." ;(

I just wanted the esc key but I guess the other keys will get some used too.

Oh wait I want it for the caps lock too! That's a wicked looking caps lock key!!!

I am short in time so I just looked one time over the posts and PMs and made a small first list:



The first group is from geekhack, the second from deskthority. (7bit's 13 is just a placeholder)
Please review your line and PM me mistakes please! (I know there will be some, e.g. lister changing to complete boards etc.)
I will update the list tomorrow at the same time.
If I had completly wrong numbers, it could be possible that the last (time, not place in list) has to be kicked or the next one on the waiting list will be added.

I will try to be as fast with everything as my free time allows me!

Tarkoon, looks like no one wants to share shipping cost for full keyboards.  It is only 1 Euro difference between 2 Kg and 5 Kg shipping to the USA.  I think 5 Kg should be able to cover 2 keyboards.  Could you ship 2 full keyboards and 2 sets of keycaps for me?  Thanks.

If it saves money getting them to the US I would be down.

EDIT: The person who requested to share shipping on the just caps part of my order has pulled out.

As my order stands now 2 NIB Complete Keyboards.

JesuswasaZombie, let's see if we could make it work.  4 boards for me, 2 for you.  total 6 boards.  It will either be 5 Kg (34 Euros) or 10 Kg (45 euros).  about $13 for USPS parcel post from me to San Francisco.  If it is 10 Kg, it will be about $60 + $13 = $73, divided by 6 keyboards, around $12 shipping each keyboard.  

Would that work?
