2x Original doubleshot Geekhack MX caps.

Part of the original run, initially bought by BitFlipper and I bought two off of him. Pictured on the boards they currently live on that are fresh out of storage. No idea what price they go for now, been away from keyboards for years, and am now rationalizing my collection to stuff I'll actually use (IBM and MX blues mostly).

Honestly not all that much nowadays since artisan keycaps effectively replaced the spot keys like this held in the community back in the day. Realistically I'd say tops around $20 to $30 a piece to someone who appreciates the history behind them, all the way down to the the retail price of like $3 to $5 a piece depending who would be willing to buy them. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but that would be my valuation of them.

Yeah, I would say barely a few bucks each. You can also get them made through SP pretty easily and they're quite common in grab bags.

OK, cheers for the answers. They can stay on the boards they lived on for years. As I said, wildly out of the loop. Will be back to price a few boards when they're all cleaned and working perfectly from a stay in storage.

blueberry65 - full white, solder PCB, PC + POM + FR4 plates. Barely used. I posted on r/mechmarket and there was no interest so maybe its worth less than I thought

I fell out of MK's and put all my hobby time into photography (sony a7cii), so I'm thinking of trying to liquidate for camera gear. Any thoughts on value of these?

Keebs, all clean - not even pricing the keysets
IBM Model M (7/31/92) ($150?)
Poker II PKX-6100 ($60?)
MS Designer White ($20?)
BigTuna Miuni32 Rev1 with a CNC aluminum housing/plate I made, gateron whites ($120?)
BigTuna Miuni32 Rev1 extra PCB ($10?)
BTC (Behavior Tech Computer) PS/2 5100C ($40?)
JD Carpe JD45 Rev0 (2015) Cherry MX Brown, custom CNC aluminum housing/plate ($200?)

Then I have a mystery KB (orange/white keys, pcb photo included) with a 8/9/2019 date, 65% with cherry mx red linear rgbs (??)

Artisans (all MX & circa like 2016)
Booper x KeyKollectiv - Kosmonavt - Challenger (OG, Purple in Cyan)
Aero Keys - Mechashark Peach
KeyForge - Saber - Wisteria
Zorbcaps Entling v2 Forest
???? Lil glow in the dark alien guy

I'd say $50 is the range for a Model M. They're quite plentiful out there.

Probably <$110 on the BigTuna and JD45 as they're pretty dated and there's way better deals for keyboard kits nowadays.

The mystery 60% is likely a generic 60% case (Revo or KBDfans Tofu or similar) kit -- I'd pin it under $80 for all together.

Aero Keys $20
Keyforge Saber $30
Zorbcaps $30
???? $20

Rest seems fine

I received my MoErgo Glove80 a month ago and I am using it daily. I have realized, however, that I bought:

Glove80 Ergonomic Keyboard Revision 2 with Travel Case - Grey / Kailh Choc v1 Brown Tactile

meaning with Brown Tactile switches, and I now feel that I need lighter switches, like Cherry Blossom.

Do you think someone would this keyboard? Then I could buy a new one.  :)
