Not much use for me in any case. No winkeyless bottom rows on anything but my IBMs.
It's thick PBT, as far as I know only the laser printed caps are thin PBT. Again for me Cherry PBT are worth nothing being that "Classic Beige" that I don't really fancy. Only exception is SSK
Oh, you're all about the doubleshots? All the more thanks then for sending me that white on black set!
I'm a sucker for good thick PBT and good thick dyesub. These XT caps on my SSK here have got great dye, but Granite has them beat on feel. I suspect thick Cherry dyesubs do too.

I'm sold to doubleshots
Cherry dyesubs are top quality, crisp legends, really thick PBT, silky to the touch. So if you like the colours these are worth the money.

Haha, that's the SSK that was posted months ago from the automotive diagnostic machine in minnesota that people tried to get parted out.
He's really shooting for the moon with
that price.

Yeah I guess he got word about the prices now. Too bad.

As beside having blue MX switches, this one also has German doubleshot 1.25 modifiers with centered stems,
the asked price of 65€ shipped to Germany seems quite reasonable.
But well, I would bet t is already sold

I have no use for it.
Strg instead of
Control would look rather silly on my French keyboard

OK now that`s a solid argument.
I`ll contact Harald and we`ll see...

An alleged green Alps board:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Zenith- ... 1961821378?
One of the pictures has Alps to MX stems inserted, a la Muirium's picture here from April:
http://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/cher ... 34-90.html
Pretty sure the seller just did a Google search for "100-1860" like I did, found that picture, and cluelessly posted it on his eBay listing.
Anyway, I've been pining for a green Alps board, but not with that layout. Too $$$ for what it is, for me anyway - even though it appears to be in good condition. And there is no original picture verifying that it really is a green Alps board.

Muirium, your pic was not yet included when he tried to sell this board
for the first time.
It had a starting bid of $69.95 and a BuyItNow price of $119.95.
Now, after having added your pic, he only wants $99.95.
The compelling conclusion: including your pic makes the keyboard worth $20 less
Seriously, if I were you I would first urge him to at once remove the stolen pic,
and if he doesn’t file a complaint with eBay.

You can be my attorney in this case if you like! Sounds like a lot of bother to me.

Thanks. We can talk about your commission on the proceeds later. I'm quite generous when it comes to splitting zero!

Nice link, too bad it's in Japan. Proxies are going to kill the deal.

The pic has now been deleted, the seller announced he would add an original photo of the actual switch later.
I hope he will be able to remove a cap without pulling the switch apart

Excellent. He can safely charge more now. He'll need to, to cover my damages and your cut!

If that board was $40 cheaper I'd jump on it.

There is now a (not every good) pic of a green switch on the listing.
