WTB/WTT KBC Poker, mx reds -- would trade my KBC Race
« on: Wed, 05 September 2012, 02:17:52 »
I'm interested in a KBT Poker: MX Reds, Black ABS keycaps, prefer no backlit keys.  If you have an aluminum case with it I'd consider purchasing that but would like the original case included.  I'd rather trade instead of purchase, but will still buy.

I have for trade a KBT Race, green leds, mx reds.  There is a small scratch on the right shift but other than that the keyboard has been used very lightly for the last month or so.

Please PM me if you have this available, I would like to get this done ASAP as I am going out of town and would like to switch before I do so.

* I don't like the green LEDs, I would like to use this for business.
* I would unsolder the switches myself but then once I do that I am unable to find keycaps for the very top row since they are not of standard build.  I can replace all of the keycaps except the top row, I've looked but can't seem to find any.

You should consider a KBT Pure with PBT caps. Qtan sells them on his website, and you can find him in the vendor sub forum. I'm typing on KBT Pure with MX Reds and PBT caps right now, very nice. Add on O-rings and they get very quiet for office environments.

Thanks I'll take a look at that.  I wasn't aware that the top profile wasn't available on the market, if I had known that I wouldn't have purchased this.

Perhaps check out the Choc Mini?  No leds, standard top row...though the bottom row is non-standard, but you can find standard keys in those sizes, and you still get the arrows :)  Considering trying one out myself.

Just get a TKL with standard arrows and layout Trent!  You've been accustomed to the world's largest keyboards anyway!  A TKL or a 60/75%, who cares! =)

Would you consider trading for my plate mounted KBC poker? I don't have blank keycaps, but I can throw in some white PBT's (not shown)

Oh I thought it said blank, not black xD
I can include the stock black abs keycaps.

Currently I am engaged in a trade with Lethal Squirrel.  My package was shipped on Saturday and his package was shipped yesterday.  Will message the thread when the trade has been completed, then the thread can be locked.
