http://www.ebay.com/itm/CHERRY-G81-1822HQMUS-PS2-BLACK-KEYBOARD?item=230761044710&cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D4%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D7121069514917065804#ht_500wt_1180

Comes out to $51 shipped. But I have bought two offering him $30. So it was $43 shipped. The last time I had to PM him because the make an offer thing was gone.
They are brand new DS's. Only thing is the del, end, pg dwn keys are Function row profile. And the Numpad had two single unit 0's.

I am using them on TKL boards so its all good. Pretty good deal though for brand new caps. Not sure what to do with the boards. THey are nice heavy duty boards
but I didn't like the MY switches at all. Don't think I could get anything for them on here.

Credit to Bavman for showing me these originally.

Got mine for $43 shipped :)  Made him an offer before he decided to set a static price!

Why cause you wanted to use the board? Would be sweet if they were MX hell yah. I got two of these boards sitting here and I don't know what to do with them. I feel weird just tossing them.

So you offered him 27? Or just said 40 shipped? Either way nice deal. He ships very quickly too. Uses FedEx. Both mine came in two days. Texas to cali.

I'm not sure what a moogle is but I know you'll need other compatible keys if you want a full cherry doubleshot set. The caps lock is out and the right shift look a bit short. But yeah, good set none the less so ah how can we tell if the Windows key is doublehot or no?

That's what a moogle kit is: it contains all the extra required keys so you can have a fully matching set on a modern keyboard like a filco.

G81 boards feature MY switches, but they are useless anyways. Still better than most rubberdomes though.

Yah MY's. They do not feel very nice to type on. Pretty mushy. They are very solid heavy duty boards though. Nice quality.
