2/25/2012 - Price update (see green below).
one sold one to go - 3/2/2012
Original box no longer available - 3/10/2012

Used but in great condition. I have one of the original packaging if it's something you'd like (first come; first serve)

Here's a link to my ebay profile: http://myworld.ebay.com/ryun511

I'm looking for $65.00 USD shipped (continental US) each. I'm not wild about the idea of shipping overseas, but PM me and maybe we can work something out. I am also up for trading one or both for a nice, fullsized Cherry MX brown keyboard.

I will only be taking payments via PayPal, Amazon payments, check, or money order. If you would like to use credit or debit I only require that you pay for the extra fees.

Thanks!

*Edit* -

Decided to lower the price a bit (depending on where you live) because I'd really like to get these keyboards sold so I can buy a new Cherry MX brown leopold/filco/rosewill board (I'm still open to trades as well).

I'm asking for $50.00 + shipping for each. The keyboards will ship from Warminster, PA (18974) so if you live close-ish I can ship the keyboard to you for like $6 via priority USPS. If you live on the other side of the country it'll still cost you close to $65. The first one that asks will get the original box as well (I only have one). The same payment methods above apply, but again I ask that you please pay for any fees related to using a credit/debit card.

A PM from a user gave me the idea to give you a sense of usage so here you go: None of the keyboards have any lettering wear and are free from scratches/marks. They are a bit dirty/dusty but I am going to take care of before I send them out. I've been working on the one for about 8 hours a day, 5 days a week for about a year and it's been working just as good as the day I bought it. The other one I've used about the same, but over a longer period of time and also works very well.

*Edit #2* -

Decided to absolutely lower the price to $35 + shipping for each. Let's get these keyboards a new home :biggrin1:. Same conditions apply above, except the price of course.

These have Alps don't they?

Considering these were on sale for about $10 on newegg, you might have trouble selling those.

When were they ever $10?? A bit of exaggeration.

And considering click clack keys were on sale for $13, people might have trouble selling them for more too.... oh wait... people can sell them for over $100. What something is bought at and the actual value of it is very different. Otherwise, no one would buy click clack keys, vintage keys, or filco reds for over their MSRP.

OP, GLWS

I agree with you whitefiredragon, especially since these keyboards aren't in production anymore. This was my first mech keyboard and I loved it until I broke the "m" key. Very solid constructions, heavier switches.

Thanks for the input everyone.

Also, mind the bump.

I just want to chime in here and say that over the last couple weeks, there have been about 4 different people comment on my classified ads with negative comments about the price I listed. One of those was for an ABS M1 that I sold for my asking price. One was for a R.A.T. 7 that actually wasn't as cheap elsewhere as claimed, and again, I sold for my asking price. A couple more people commented on a WTB thread stating that I wouldn't find the item for as cheap as I wanted. However, I did find what I was looking for - for quite a bit less than the retail price.

So, the moral is that these comments are not helpful and are unnecessary. Items will sell for what they are worth to someone else. That may not be the asking price at first, but the seller can choose to lower the price. Or in the case of a WTB, the buyer can choose to raise his offer.

I thought about posting a new thread with this information, but I honestly don't want to start a flame war. However, I couldn't resist commenting here since there since there is already a bit of a discussion.

I've lowered the price a bit as I'd very much like to get both of these keyboards sold so I can upgrade. Thanks

OP how is the price lowered when you first posted was $65 each shipped, now with lowered price $50 + shipping, and actual shipping is around $15 which brings it to $65.... is there something wrong with my math or?

NguyenAdam · « **Reply #12 on:** Tue, 14 February 2012, 16:24:26 »

Its a mind trick!

Haha, I assure you that wasn't my intention.

As I had said in the edit, yeah if you're closer to the west coast the price will probably remain the same. I was looking into the shipping costs more at USPS and if you live closer you get a better rate. For example, if you live in Pittsburgh I can send the keyboard to you for around $6 via priority mail.

It's a small change, but all and all I thought this would be more fair.

I like this alternate reality USPS.

In accordance with the laws of supply and demand, and with the power vested in me, I have lowered the price to $35 + shipping for each.

I hope we can get some nice new homes for these 2 keyboards. Thanks for all that have been following the thread, by the way.
