Rare opportunity to get a Full ANSI set in one board with centered caps and 1.25 modifiers. These are quite uncommon, as most have the ISO enter. It's not in the best shape, but not terrible either.

IIRC, good seller. Bought some POS stuff from him back in the day. Beware, these boards are DIRTEH!

Thanks. Kind of interested in a beige Cherry board with clears but they are so damn big.

You do NOT want to buy a heavily used POS board for switches.

No I meant I would like to get a cherry board with clears to use it. Are the clears commonly on POS boards? I don't want one of those big tanks something smaller would be much better. In ansi of course which always seems harder to find.

On the larger ones, you can usually grab all the switches you need from the almost-unused function keys, and less-used keys (semicolon, for example). Also, I have read that mostly its' deformations in the metal spring that cause older POS boards to "wear out". I have read that re-bending them may help, and in either case, swapping the stems should have no effect.

I agree, on 120+ switch boards there is bound to be at least 61 good ones for your main typing block. Even still it is the contact leaf that gets bend more often than the tactile point being worn on the stems.

Generally clears are most common on the G80-8*** boards, but I have seen some G80-3000 that came with clears stock but they are harder to find.
