That is a nice one! If I didn't already have two, I'd be all over this.

Looks like the seller experienced a bout of delusional self-confidence in his product, and increased the price to $299. Joke.com...

Hahaha. For $130 shipped, it was a fair deal. For $299, it's just ridiculous.

Whoever is selling it must read Geekhack.

$199 is still ridiculous.

*** DO NOT PAY OVER $120 PLUS SHIPPING FOR THIS KEYBOARD. ***

Back up to 299.  Way overpriced.

Prices on these are a roller coaster. There are price spikes every year or so. 2-3 years ago when I really wanted one, they were way high and I paid $140 + shipping.

A few months later they were down in the $90 range.

Personally, I would consider <$100 a good price and >$150 excessive, but they have sold in the $200 range recently.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."
