I'm selling my modded TG3 BL82 board. It's a one of a kind board at the moment featuring Cherry MX Blue switches, orange LEDs and a transparent case. PS/2 Connector. The board is missing the ESC key but I'm having one delivered from Deck.

More info about the board: http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:14034

The buyer will receive the board, 10 spare LEDs and an 'orange on black' Geekhack key.

The price is 170€ shipped. Will ship worldwide but would prefer an EU buyer and bank transfer instead of PayPal.

what kind of KRO? 2KRO? 6KRO?
are the Cherry Blues from a new or a used board?

I got the switches from Sixty. The feeling is uniform across the board so even if the switches were used, they weren't used much.

According to Google the board is 2KRO.

According to Google the board is 2KRO.

Although it was suspected, but the hope dies last. very sad. the mod is fantastic. color and switchtype is made as for me
but i would like to game with it and prefer 6KRO :/

No problem. Hopefully someone will buy it

Still available.

bump

I'm might also consider a trade, if you have something good to offer.

Are you interested in a cherry g80 german with clears?

I'd be interested in one of those huge-ass programmable Cherry boards with a gazillion keys and IBM Space Savers

Just saying

U mean this?

Nah, the one that looks a lot like the IBM 122-key board.

G80-2100 with the LED Cherry Key... mmm the goodness.

It's actually possible to buy a new G80-2100 on Taobao for about 150eur + shipping. It would end up costing about 250eur in the end tho...

I believe so.
But a lot of them are actually sold out but the posting remains.
I have sent plenty of emails to obook about G80-1000s and they are all gone.

I am still frantically looking for my PCB mounted pre-1995 MX Blacks keyboard.
So I am still looking for my G80-1000 or G80-2100 or something of the sort.

Free bump for your TG3!

Just received a replacement ESC key from Deck. It's a funky font one so it stands out on this board but still better than nothing!

Still available. Never thought it could take you two and a half years to sell a keyboard.

All I got so far is a few pats on the back and "good work" comments

EDIT: shipping cost around 18€ now included in the price

Still available!

Open to offers.. cash, trade or a combination of both.

maybe because it's stupid expensive

why is it even that expensive ?

Maybe because it took a lot of work and I value my time? The LEDs are new, the orange transparent case is new and the switches are hardly used. I had to buy all of the above so that goes into the price as well.

so the time you put into changing the switches and LEDs is worth 90€ ? because the board can be bought for 40€ on ebay, the switches are worth like 30€ and the LEDs are like 10€ (and you'd be over paying)

I find funny that you still have not thought about maybe lowering your price even after 7 years of denial, even when it's obvious that it's the only thing holding back such a sale. but oh well, if even you can't accept it, I won't be the one to make you understand

(and I'm sure you could find each of these items for cheaper)

You're overanalyzing this and you're being condescending.

The price includes shipping which at the time was 20,50€. Geekhack key also cost around 4-5€. If I remember correctly, it took me about 14 hours to do the board. In the end it amounts to 4.6€ per hour.

I didn't do this mod to get rich. I did it because I enjoyed it but ended up not using the board. Indeed, I haven't lowered the price but I did say that I'm open to offers. What more do you want?

Now get off your high horse.

EDIT:
- buy keyboard
- buy LEDs
- buy switches
- buy orange case
- buy geekhack key
- pay postage for everything
- pay import tax, customs procedure and VAT on keyboard and case

You still think I'm in this to MAKE money?
