[ALL SOLD] NIB Naked Cherry G80-2551 Terminal Keyboard

[jdcarpe]

[STRIKE]I do not have these on hand yet. They are still on the way to me from Germany.[/STRIKE] I purchased four BRAND NEW IN THE BOX Cherry G80-2551 from snoopy in Germany. He had only opened the boxes to pull all the keycaps off each one. So these are being sold NAKED. I don't need four of them, so I thought I could probably split the costs and share the value with some people here. They have Cherry MX Black switches and no keycaps. ISO Layout.

ALL GONE: TWO SOLD, ONE TRADED [STRIKE]I have 3 AVAILABLE to sell.[/STRIKE] (3 RESERVED)
1. Choi Young Gyoo (traded, shipped)
2. Autolyze (paid, shipped)
3. MagicMeatball (paid, shipped)

Price is $46 shipped in the US. International buyers are welcome, but would require extra for shipping. US shipping will be via Priority Mail with tracking.

In case you were wondering, I'm not looking to make any profit from this sale. I paid $116 to snoopy for these 4 boards, shipped, from Germany. $116 / 4 = $29. Shipping from me to US buyer via Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation will be around $17. $29 + $17 = $46.

wish they were with keycaps, because without the keycaps its a half a beauty, it will be impossible to find keycaps for the board later on :-(

There is still time to order keycaps from Round 4. Looks like there's still 1 each of SPH/TERMINAL and ROUND3/TERMINAL available.

Damn, this needs very long to arrive in US...

You're telling me! They left the USPS Sort Facility in Dallas, TX sometime yesterday, so they should arrive any day now. I'll post some pictures of the one I'm keeping once they arrive here.

I knew of this GB, but these are not original cherry caps, they are SP ones.

Well, yes. It is a real shame that Cherry Corp no longer makes double shot keycaps.

Are you saying you DON'T want a battleship that resembles the classic Space Cadet keyboard?

Offcourse I want, I already have 3 NIB IBM battleships.... any link on how the keycaps look from SP for this perticular cherry board, not sure if GB4 is using the cherry legends?

Not using Cherry legends, but the set I am ordering for this board are spherical, not cylindrical. Here's the link to the Round 4 wiki.

If you like those SPH style, just send a PM to 7bit_r4 with the following:

SPH/TERMINAL
SPH/SPACEUNI

It's not hard to fill up one of these with Cherry keycaps...

Can always do something like this with it.

[Autolyze]

I'm up for one if they're still available. I'm mostly a tenkeyless or smaller guy, but I'm sure I could do some interesting things with one of these.

I ended up swapping a SPH/TKL for the last SPH/TERMINAL! I had been thinking about it before, but now I figure that I'll actually have a keyboard that it'll work on.

[jdcarpe]

The post office left a notice today! I will pick them up from the post office at 9 am tomorrow. For those that reserved boards, I will ship them out tomorrow as well. Sending invoices now.

I still have ONE available for sale. Someone please take this last one, before I am tempted to harvest the BRAND NEW pcb mount switches from it!

[jdcarpe]

Received the keyboards in the mail this morning. They look great! Thanks, snoopy! Added pictures of the actual board to the OP.

I will start shipping these today, as I receive payments. I still have ONE available for sale. If you have held off buying one of these just because of the Cherry MX Black switches, I can tell you that it is very easy to replace the stems and springs on these PCB-mount switches. Heck, I would even do it for you at no extra charge if you send me the stems and/or springs for the mod.

Get keycaps for it here. Keycaps are easy to order, just send a PM to 7bit_r4 with:

[snoopy]

good to hear they arrived well :-)

Hope you hadn't any problems with US customs or something like that

[jdcarpe]

No problems at all, snoopy. Thanks again!

These are all gone, folks. Thanks to everyone for their interest. Glad I was able to provide some really nice keyboards to a few members here. Everything has gone very smoothly on my end, from purchasing these from snoopy, to receiving them from Germany, to getting reservations and then payments once I had the boards in hand, to shipping them out.

Choi Young Gyoo, let me know when you receive your board in Korea. I will let you know when I have the item I traded for, and I will post pictures here in this thread, if you have no objections.

A huge "thanks" again to everyone involved!

[smknjoe]

Odessa Fat Boys?

That was fast!

[jdcarpe]

As of today, all parties have received their keyboards and all feedback has been left. Everyone seems happy with their purchases/trades, so I'm going to close the thread.

Here are pictures of the keycaps I received in trade from Choi Young Gyoo.





Thanks, everyone, for making everything go so smooth!
