Lol, I suppose I could look through the bags and try and find the most yellowed keycaps for you.

That would be awesome, thanks
I've never done it before, but I'm pretty sure I'm good at it

With a flat rate game board box it will be under $18 to any domestic address.
Perhaps a few dollars less going ground to a neighboring state, but probably $12-$14 minimum in any case.
"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

I am interested in vintage blacks, but can you tell me what is the difference (appearance-wise) between it and newer blacks?
I like mechanical keyboards

Prior to the 90s, really old vintage blacks had their logos large and either centered, or offset. By the mid 90s or so, there was a transition from slider material and to small logo. However, you will find boards in the 80s and 90s which have a mixture of large and small. The newer the board, the more instances of having all switches with small logo.

My 80s bag has a mixture of large, small, and offset
My 90s bag has all small logo

Compared with current MX Blacks, they are all smoother, with the 80s bag significantly smoother than the 90s bag. Coincidentally I also have a NIB board with large logo black, and I would equate them to somewhere close to the 90s bag. In some cases, I can't tell them apart from the new MX blacks.

Just wanted to say this guy is a pleasure to buy from. Bought some AEK II dyesubs and they're cleaner than some of the second-hand modern stuff I've bought.

Thanks man! I left those caps in a dental tab bath overnight before sending them off to you. That's probably why they're so clean.

No, you asked me to compare the differences in appearance between vintage and modern.

Do you have a count on how many dampened alps switches that is? Or did I just miss the number somewhere?
