Just a heads up I bought this one which uses all the same pics from the same seller. I might just be paranoid and the seller is lazy.
And it auto-accepted at $125 for mine

The same down to the serial number on the sticker on the back (is that a serial number?).

"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

Yeah I'm sure the seller is just lazy and is reusing pics but has a bunch of Fs in similar condition

All these F AT boards showing up seems kinda strange.

The one I bought and didn't get was a different seller but same area I think, and I believe the board I received might have sold from this seller.

Need to do some research.

Anyone know why the shipping is so cheap internationally? I get quoted 60-70 from most sellers in the US

He probably doesn't have the weight entered correctly in the auction parameters which is what the shipping quote would be based on.  You might want to check with the seller to be sure that the shipping shown is correct for your specific country.

You have to pay $36 to the seller for import charges? That sucks. I need an F in my life.

Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

The US Post Office large flat rate game board box is $17 domestic and $77 international, so $60 is the proper differential from "free" domestic shipping.

“These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power."
He paused for a moment, then thundered, “Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power!”
“In vain,” Roosevelt said, “they seek to hide behind the Flag and the Constitution. In their blindness they forget what the Flag and the Constitution stand for. Now, as always, they stand for democracy, not tyranny; for freedom, not subjection; and against a dictatorship by mob rule and the over-privileged alike.”

****I have 2 problems.  Keyboard addiction, and lack of money.

Pretty sure the first isn't helping the latter :/

I'm pretty sure the former problem is greatly contributing to the severity of the second problem.

Yeah so don't buy from this guy. He's reused the same pic multiple times and is sending different boards to people. I just got mine and it's an XT.

At least he has to pay for return shipping.  That or free board.

Thanks for letting us know. Now everyone knows to avoid them.
