Just for price reference, here's the breakdown:

- Moogle $17
- Full Mod $18
- 2x Extra Spacebars $3/each = $6
- Shipping $3
______________________________
Total $44

$130 - $44 = $86 shipped.  If you want to get technical, shipping will cost him around $6, so you're looking at $80 for the base Dolch set in mint condition.

For $80, a mint condition Dolch set is not a bad price.  The absolute cheapest I've seen it was like $60.  The Wyse set on the other hand....

Edit:  With that being said, if the buyer of this set is not interested in the Moogle kit, holla at yo boy.  I need an extra set =/

I PM'd about the Dolch set within about ten minutes of the original post. I've heard nothing back though.

I don't think the white cherry set is yellowed at all. Heres a pic of the keyboard that donated them before cleaning (G81-1800HAU). It had a plastic cover on it its whole life which protected the keys I think. Just crappy lighting in our office at home.

Filco keys are all ABS.

Yes, separating random SP doubleshots.

Won't be listing black keys for a few days probably. Have to find time to sort through 3 sets and match em all up.

Have a white Filco tenkeyless with blues I might sell also. Was going to  install some new clear switches and sell it for $200 but not sure I want to bother.

Could you post other pictures of them please? The difference between the two is way too much IMO to warrant the price. If they do look like the above picture, then it's not all that bad.

I'm waiting to see the condition of the keycaps on a board I am getting tomorrow, can you put the white filco keycaps on reserve for me?  If I don't like the keys I'll let you know and buy that set from you.

If not no worries.

Yeah I wasn't trolling. I really thought this was a good deal for a mint Dolch set. I figured roughly about 40 for the moogle kit with free shipping. I figure it's pretty much sold at this point. GLWS

I spoke with shawn and a $hit storm came down at his work today and he is stuck having to work 16hr days for at least the rest of the week. So there won't be any real updates to his sale until it blows over and he has some free time again. If you already sent him a PM, don't send a million more asking about status as you won't get a response

and stop asking about Dolch as they are long gone

Thanks for the info, Mr Likeflynn.

If the Dolch is still available, I'm interested.

Back at work 5am-10pm last night and today it looks like.  Anyways, want to get this done before the weekend.

Dolch and WYSE are both sold to same person and going overseas I guess.

WHite Filco set is gone and everything is being dropped off at the post office today for me.

Will try and get pics of the white Cherry set but the one on the full keyboard is accurate as it was taken in my garage under good lighting with my iphone. Other pics were taken in lowe light (I hate CFLs). Maybe this weekend I guess I'll have to do it.

THanks!

Just looked at those pics and now I wonder if something is wrong with my D90 or 35mm lens. I see yellow sports on the white sheet of template paper. Not sure what that is about.

I'm curious if someone PM'd about the Dolch set before I did.

He works at a hospital, so don't expect an answer anytime soon.  Probably pulling a 12-hour shift.

I haven't heard back either because I want that Dolch set.

I heard from him last night that i was 3rd PM about dolch. Placebo you were ahead of me in PM's about the dolch, I know that. don't know if you were 1st or 2nd there :-/

If you were third and Placebo Guy was ahead of you and I sent a PM before either of you how did these end up going to someone else? I never received a reply either way. Seriously, what happened here?

Someone probably offered him more money than he was asking and offered to buy both sets or something like that.
