It also feels like it has a double bump sometimes. All in all, very odd switches. SKCM Black are a bit better in these regards.
Oh, Alps also really did that:

I’ve a board of these. They’re pretty nice. Not Topre nice, but closer than MX brown could ever dream.

I had a board with integrated domes and I thought it felt terrible. I think it depends on which slider you get though.

Square slider integrated domes are awful. Round slider is much more pleasant.

I absolutely hate the integrated domes in my Tandy 200, in fact, I want to one day have an Alps-clone PCB for it to replace them. And they are the round slider version, with white sliders.

It almost seems like a Crime against Humanity posting this link, deeply sorry for my mistake.
Appreciate being informed about this, IBM name doesn't always lead to decent things being sold on Flebay

Nothing wrong with rubber domes
It's a cool looking board regardless

I had a NIB one but it was water damaged. Kept the keycaps, they were double-shots, but it may have been a version without Win keys if that type exists. Count me in for one if anyone's willing to handle logistics...

At least within Germany it may be easier to just buy a single one for 15 euros. A group buy one would be 6 euros each + packaging, shipping costs and maybe paypal fees, not too much money to save if you consider the work for the GB-runner

Since we're talking about rubberdomes, here's an RD unsaver:

Judging by the keycaps I'm thinking this *could* be Leaf Spring:

They are. Problem is that nobody knows how to convert the protocol yet.

Unless there are several versions, they should be Fujitsu Peerless:

I feared this may be the case, but I was hopeful because of the keycaps. Thank you for the great pictures!

Unless old logo/salmon Alps actually bring the price up that much, in which case I'm going to look dumb

I'd be down for one depending on the price and shipping to the US. I love trackball boards and I'd be curious to see how good those RDs actually are, taking Chyros' word for it

What switches do they come with? Also, the shipping to Canada as well could be an issue.

Ordered one a few days ago and just got it today. To my surprise the switches were actually linear, not clicky like I was expecting. I desoldered one and opened it up, and it appeared to be nearly identical to KPT switches, but when comparing it side by side with one of the KPT switches I got off of AliExpress, I found quite a few differences. Most notably, it seems to be noticeably wider side-to-side, but ever so slightly shorter front-to-back. The height appears to be the same.
I'll post some pics and some more comparisons tomorrow, but it's late and I have to go pick up an IBM P70 tomorrow morning.
