I'm not sure what translucent 420's sell for, but these seem overpriced even given the current market. (Edit: I'm talking about BIN)

Yup.  Love his double standard.  I hate how much people buy and sell Clacks for, how there are PM and private auctions, and this other bull****.  By the way, I'm selling all my Clacks to the highest PM bidder over an unspecified period of time and if you point out my hypocrisy I'll blame Geekhack for it, say that I'm not being a hypocrite, then go make out with my buddy Ripster who makes fun of how overpriced Clacks are all while embracing me while I rip people off.

Yep, doubtful though. I am really liking that 420 O' Natural, I might try to pick one up down the road in a solid color if there is such a thing.

If I ever sell my H.O. MX Clack it will be to make a donation to GH with zero profit as I won it from a giveaway thread.

That is still a pretty damn big IF.  It is my only Clack.  I only have one Binge cap, and still waiting on word like everyone else for the Toxic Bro Bots.

And if they do, are we allowed to politely inquire of the sellers if they just bought these from ebay and are marking them up to sell here to rip off fellow members???

You must be new here.

You'll soon learn most of us at GH are somewhat insane, and that $90 for a single keycap is by no means unheard of...

Yup my first purchase here was the cap in my profile pic for 70 USD.  Some of the older and smaller run clacks have fetched upwards of $250.

The Titanium Skull was also my first keycap purchase. Think I paid $75 shipped for it from Feng...

Then there was my first CC, for which I paid (and resold for) $200.

Yep, that's exactly what it is. Clacks are limited-run and very sought-after. A perfect example of supply and demand's effect on a market.

They're almost like a second form of currency here, very valuable and effective as trade items.
