WTB 55g Topre Keyboard
« on: Sat, 31 May 2014, 02:10:26 »
And by WTB I mean want to borrow or want to buy.  So, if you were to loan me one for a week, you'd be my hero and would get a quad shot Dolly cap back with it and if you were to sell/trade one for an affordable price, you'd be equally awesome.

Also, I may or may not be two 24oz beers in at this point, so that may be why I'm finally saying **** it, I need to really try Topre.

I've also got all kinds of random stuff to trade for one including some Clacks, some Bros, a Dolch Pac 61 (entire unit minus caps) that I've been trying to figure out how to convert to PS/2, CCnG, and other goodies that I can take pictures of if you want to trade instead.  I just want to try 55g Topre so I can finally say yay or nay, but I don't have a ton of money to shell out for one since most my money goes to paying off student loans or experiments.

I know you're looking for 55g, but if you want to try an FC660C just shoot me a PM.  I'd gladly let you try it for a few weeks or however long you'd like.

That gave me a lol.

I am also sitting on the fence for Topre. But I have not yet tried ergo clears.

I'd be willing to lend you my 87u.  But I am not willing to pay a penny: you'd cover shipping both ways.

Also I have to figure out how shipping works.  #embarassed

Do you live in the US? If so the best shipping method would be with a large flat rate game board box from USPS. Fast shipping with tracking and a bit of insurance.

Edit: The medium box might work as well because it's a TKL keyboard.
