Compaq Branded Cherry G80-11800

Starting bid is a hair under $35 shipped.

It uses MX Browns and, based on the fact that it has homing dots, not bars, it should be thick lasered PBT.

Compaq, MX browns, thick PBT, with four days left? My guess is this will go for a lot! Hopefully someone here can get a good deal on it though. Thanks for the find nubbinator  :D

Man, no one is bidding on this thing. At a pretty awesome price right now! I would bid on this if I weren't broke.

Not too sure but it would make for an awesome laptop keyboard seeing that it has the trackball (assuming it works)... Fudge... If only I had $50 to waste I would snag this, or at least try to.

Edit: OOO, It just went up!

I don't mind buying it or trying if I knew I could offload it later.

PCB mounted which mean hot swapping switches, Cherry Brown, under $50. It's pretty dayum good deal, if you ask me. But I don't know the value of this thing.

At least you tried! You're a better man than I, good sir. Oh well, it hit above $50. I'm done here :P

Edit: $39 + shipping. Nice! Not too sure on value but I bet that was a good deal.

Wow, I only paid £15 for mine a few months ago, it must be the difference between ISO and ANSI :)

These come up for cheap quite often. The only thing is they are not often listed as G80 11800, 185152-001, 186591-001 or anything else meaningful and you have to wade through the sea of Compaq crap domes boards to find them for super cheap.
