Good price, actually. Unless.... 216,90 € (sis 23 % alv.)

I hope that says (including 23% tax) and not excluding ;)

according to google that's included.
Seems to be variable force on that one too.

Do they accept foreigners orders yet?

As far as I know they didn't in the past so if you wanted to buy some of their keybaords you had to order trough someone you knew there.

I've heard quite the contrary. They do accept foreign orders, but only via bank transfer. That's what going to kill the deal for you. I have proxied Topre stuff from Verkkokauppa before, but the shipping will be quite a lot for a keyboard.

I guess that Keyboardco is pretty close to getting theirs as well, though theirs might be more expensive. An 88U from Keyboardco is going to cost at least 170 £ plus 23 percent tax plus shipping. That's going to be somewhere near 250 €.

Judging by the photo on the Verkkokauppa.com website, the 88U series is based on the 86U. No LED windows, no num lock key. That's a shame. I love the virtual numpad on the Noppoo Choc Mini, even though it's not the standard numpad layout.

Yeah, that's kinda disappointing. At least it has the shorter spacebar, and additional windows key.
I also think the pinkies are 35g instead of 30g on the 86U.

Oh! Then I missunderstood that. I thought we couldn't buy this from outside Finnland :lol:

By the way I actually will like to have 88 White Realforces and not black ones.
