How much should 103 MX Black switches sell for? Thanks.

due to the large amount of vintage blacks...about 0,10 € per switch. ,15 to 0,20 for brand new ones.

How much would you pay for a used Dell AT 102 DW (AT102W?) Here is an image of it

I actually find the chOcony kb 5182 more interesting then the dell...that board could be anything from cherry, alps, to futabas...chicony boards are my favorite buy when I want a surprise.

So, I am going to get an answer before the damn thing is sold?

Here is info about the chicony http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:8599

Looks like you'll have to invest to find out.
But first have a look here:

i bought a black alps dell for 1€ + shipping at ebay, but for me it is more worth, cause i do like alps and the most germans buy model m and blue cherries. probably because they have a lack of information

if you look at the pic of the dell, you can see a transparent plastic above the leds. so the keyboard should be in very good shape

i own both and believe me, the dell is the much more interesting keyboard. the chicony (smk switches) is very loud and clicks two times. one click on the downmove and one on the up. sounds like you're typing really fast with turbosound

how much is cherry G80-1800HAU/13 worth, it is in mint condition. thanks.

I have a white alps keyboard, never used it and it is kinda broken but I like the feel of it even though it seems to need some lube.

how much is that keyboard worth? [G80-9009]

How much are vintage genuine Cherry ESC worth?

how much that one are worth? (i've got bunch of them)

NIB or used?

used, as on the picture.

The picture is the pad-printed model (PPAUS) and judging by the legends it's not used much. Perhaps 20 Euro to begin with, or much less in bulk. I don't really follow the keyboard market, so my opinion is not worth much.

Hey guys, found a nice keyboard at a thrift shop and I thought I'd ask some of the experts here if they know anything about it! I've test driven it for a couple weeks and I think it's just too loud for me (and my lady when she's sleeping...). I was looking at the MX brown Leopolds and that might be right up my alley. Even the blues don't seem too loud from typing on one in a store. I'm also interested in something smaller like the TKL models because desk space is at a premium in my place!

It's an Ambra Model M "Manufactured by Lexmark" "Made in the USA" December 93.
It appears to be buckling springs but I really don't know anything about it to be honest....
It's very clean (on the outside anyways, who knows about the inside), I gave it a quick wipe and it looks almost good as new. There's minor scuffing on the bottom but nothing major. It works perfectly and sounds great, just a little loud for my taste.

Anyways, here are some pics. If there's anything you can tell me about this keyboard I would appreciate it, Thanks!

It's a Model M! The King of Keyboards. The Awakener of Fair Ladies. The Bringer of Divorce. Too loud? Bah! It is the sound of work. The manly work of a manly man using a manly tool of intellect and science - and of literature and manly poetry about conquest and the awakening of fair ladies without consent. Yes!

Just got that thing. What is it worth in real life?

It's hard to say. I would say around ~50 realistically for the keycaps. Some like to pay more. But the German variant imo is much much to common. I have like 8 of them alone

~35 usd

Talking about Ambra Model M's, How much is an older Ambra Model M worth?

How much is a g81-8308LPADE usualy worth? I can get two of those for a total of 8€-9€ incl. shipping :/ and yes, I know they're MY switches...


Also, are the stems of a MY switch keycap compatible with MX switches?
