I was looking at those. The same seller has a variety of good stuff.

Somebody down there needs to pounce on it.

Would take it if it wasn't from Australia ($80 shipping).  This looks like a rebranded Mtek K104, which usually have white Alps or Monterey blues.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Cool. About half the going US rate.

Better have a nice board to transplant those sweet switches into!
