Das Keyboar to ergo clears interest check.
« on: Sun, 09 February 2014, 23:54:01 »
I have here a Das keyboard which has only been used one day. It's got blues, and its the current model unless what's on their site now is different/newer.

Somebody here has expressed interest in buying it, but I also have what I need to turn it into ergo clears, so I figured I'd ask if anyone would be interested in having me do that before selling it to them and how much they'd pay for it.

I think it's not worth the effort, firstly Das Keyboard is all about marketing boogey which does not reflect the quality of the board. I think you leave it for your other board

@Sniping

That's because I've generally speaking got everything that I want. I wouldn't be surprised if I wasn't the only one.

@joneslee85

Well I just don't personally like cherry apparently, which I didn't know when I got all that stuff. I got it before at least the coolermaster stuff came out, possibly even before rosewill. So there isn't really anything to save it for.

Sell the Das and Clear switches separately? I doubt swapping in Clear switches would add much value to a Das, and you might have wasted your time.

Depends what springs and if you're going to lube the switches.

I was pretty sure that ergo clears are defined as clear switches with blue/brown/red springs, so I don't follow that question. Not sure if I've got any lube, but that's possible.

Sold the stock Das for $100 locally. Now I just need to decide if I want to liquidate the rest of my cherry stuff (~3 pos browns, ~3 pos clears, 1 pos black, and one rit dyed and painted pos with I don't remember).

If you want to sell your boards, post them. Descriptions, pictures, and prices will lead to far more interest than the post above.

Obviously, that wasn't an actual offer. Like I said before, I got all that stuff for projects originally. Hadn't looked at the stuff I don't have in rotation for at least a year and am only just now looking through what all I've got.
