[WTB] SKCM blue keyboard
« on: Mon, 07 August 2017, 11:45:07 »
Looking to buy an SKCM blue keyboard, one with a fairly "standard" type of layout ie ruling out things like Leading Edge 2014.

Conventional ANSI-layout blue Alps, such as the Acer KB-101A, are mega-rare.

If you own a soldering iron, you should really consider putting a "Frankenboard" together the way you really want it.
"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.

There are many others like OEMMAX, etc that aren't anywhere as rare as that 101A. I can solder/desolder, I just value my time more highly than having to go through that again. Considering these switches are often old and the joints/pins starting to oxidize, desoldering and soldering them on a donor board is just too time consuming for me. If these were new switches with no oxidization soldering to a new PCB is comparatively quick work.

How much are you looking to pay for such a board?

I never received a message.

balotz: it would really depend on the board, condition, what it came with, etc.
