Cherry G8?-1800H*G

Cherry 1800 with GB layout doubleshots. Priced on the high side, but there is a best offer option and it looks like it's been there awhile.

How can you tell it's Cherry?
I proxy anything including keyboards (キーボード / 鍵盤), from both Japan (日本) and China (中國). For more information, you may visit my dedicated webpage here: https://www.keyboards.es/proxying.html

I think it's almost been a year that they've been trying to skill that.  I've had it on my list forever to post if the price ever came down.

Layout, legends, scooped f+j, caps lock. But that's how a mortal can tell, Ivan just knows.

Picture is too blurry for me to see any of that anyways.  :p

LOL... too true, I can just tell right away what is a Cherry board even when it's not a very common model like this one. It's how I find a lot of the strange ones, or find them for silly cheap. I've only been wrong once, even buying from listings with the most horrible pictures and no relevant info in the description.

hunting for an inexpensive g80-1800 series. i made a lowball offer. doubtful, but hopeful.

Edit*

Your offer has been declined on the following eBay item:
DEK Keyboard1 Keyboard and Function Button Assembly
Your offer price:   US $40.00

wah-wah.

the hunt continues. IvanIvanovich, you seem to be good at this. any suggestions? so far all i've been doing is a blanket "g80" search on 'newest listings' as i've gone through all the other g80 listings.

Crappy stuff doesn't become uncrappy just because it is rare.
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

FYI I have one of these boards with the same extra external connector I got from a different ebay seller who also is in MN.

The one I got has the vintage "dark blues" in it....I don't know that this one does but maybe
