Hey, heading to college in a week, and I could use a smaller keyboard when I get out there. The new leopolds look nice, so I was wondering if anyone had one they would consider selling. Alternatively, if you have a different smaller keyboard (race, poker, pure, choc mini, filco TKL, whatevs) let me know. My preferred switches are blues, white alps, and buckling spring. I would also like to try the new green alps on the Ducky 1087XM. I have an AEKII, a Northgate Omnikey, and 110 Cherry Greens if you're interested in trading, but that deal will need to be sealed before I leave or I can't ship to you.

Good luck

If I had the time to mod it to greens, yes. But alas, as I do not, not at this time. Thanks though!

I acutally have black w/ red switch, white with brown switches, and a white with black switches as well.

All brand new except the red switch was open for picture purposes.

I hear the new FC700Rs are a real contender for the "filco crown of excellence"


I know I'm going to give them a 2nd look and compare them to the new WASD TKL board.

I found it! Shot you a PM in response. Consider my interest piqued. I've wanted a board with reds for a while now, so this could be interesting.

That is one major down side, it definitely kept me away from the 200's

The thing is, SP actually makes spacebars that fit the 200, but there is nothing for the 500/700.

I absolutely love my FC700 with browns. I wish it had Reds though, but I took what I could get when I found mine for sale. Every time I type on my FC700 I wonder if a Realforce would even be better.

I have a FC200RT with Cherry Clears that I might be willing to part with (looking into blues).  It currently has a full set of Ragnarok Blood doubleshots (red letters on black keys), plus an extra Black on Red doubleshot Esc key.  Interested?

Man, why you gotta go and sell things you only find out I'm interested in buying weeks later?
