Crossposted from deskthority: http://deskthority.net/marketplace-f11/mint-kbc-poker-mx-reds-with-black-on-black-engraved-pbt-caps-t4195.html

Now that I have realized that I am a MX Blue kind of guy who needs some tactility in his life, I am selling my KBC Poker with MX Reds.

I bought it last year via sixty's group buy, and I have recently replaced the stock keycaps with new PBT black on black engraved keycaps. Therefore, there is no shine on the keycaps whatsoever, and they have their rough texture. Very pretty! :oops:

The whole thing is in MINT condition; I have to check if I still have the original cardboard packaging, but most likely I threw it away.


Because of the great condition and the new keycaps, I would like to have €90 + Shipping for it. Shipping would be from Sweden or, alternatively (if somebody decides to take it before next week Wednesday), I can also ship it from Germany from Thursday onwards.



EDIT: If requested, I can post pictures tonight.
Pictures added; I hope the quality is alright. I took them with my phone. If you need more, please tell me. I just tried to show the general rough-texturedness of the keys and the lacking shine.



EDIT2:

I could be interested. Is "poste restante" to Stromstad a possibility? And yeah, some pictures would be awesome.

I don't see why that should be a problem. I have never sent anything "poste restante", but if the Swedish post service does that I am more than happy to ship it that way. Can you tell me what precisely this means for me? And is there a special address I have to indicatei?


I will post pictures later on, once I am home.

Quite frankly I don’t know the exact details involved in such a operation. I’ve only heard good things about it from friends/family. Basically it means that you will send the keyboard to a post office in Stromstad, which I then will be able to pick it up from after. The whole meaning of this exercise if of course to avoid taxes etc when sending a package to Norway. I do not know what the customs are regarding payment, but I guess we have to sort that out.

Looking good. How is 700kr (SEK) sounding?

Is that with or without shipping? ;)

I will think about it. I'd prefer to sell it for the price I originally anticipated. So I will wait a couple more days. :)

Very interested but the pictures make them look so old and greasy!  :'(

O_O Old and greasy? There is certainly a little bit of dust particles visible, which simply comes from the fact that I don't have ideal light conditions here (it's getting dark at 4pm and my illumination is not really good).
I got the keycaps in August and they did see very very little usage since then (10 hours in total?).

Have a second look at the spacebar, which usually is the first cap to exhibit signs of usage - you can see perfect texturing without any shine. That's the definition of not-greasy (or old).

You raise good points, and besides that, why would you lie about that anyway?

Well, I'm going to order a red Cherry MX and a black to see which linear I prefer and I'll get back to you if you haven't sold it by then. Also, would you be willing to negotiate the price if I provide the shipping label? I live in the US and work at a FedEx so I can get a cheap price on shipping.
