[WTS] Christmas Megasale! Alps, Topre, Cherry, Buckling Springs and more

[Palatino]

Right, the time has come… I have no more space. All keyboards are fully working and pictures of each corresponding to the board's number in the following list can be found here:

https://photos.app.goo.gl/4hezRmjfr5HnJYNK8

Most of these I'm selling for the same or less than they cost me, so hopefully the prices appear reasonable! Prices exclude shipping: I'm in the UK but happy to ship anywhere. Send me any queries you may have!

Keyboards currenrly available:

18. Added 3rd Feb ‘22 Early Dell AT102 with the older Dell logo, salmon Alps switches, dye-sublimed PBT keycaps. 5-pin DIN connector. Lowest serial number I’ve seen on one of these. Even the sticker appears earlier than the wiki examples, and doesn’t show the FCCID (which is presumably GYIAT101-102, being salmon alps and USA-made (although ISO layout!)) Good condition. Hard to part with this but I’m forcing myself! £160

5. Vale-branded NTC, yellow alps-clone switch that's clicky and that I thought was white alps till I lifted a cap. Missing one flip foot - apart from that, very good condition. £50

17. Price reduced APC-H412 with NEC Blue Oval switches. Beautiful board in excellent condition, doubleshot keycaps, missing the ‘-’ keycap on the numpad (switch still works). £60 £55

14. Price reduced Unicomp Model M, buckling springs, manufactured December 2020. Not sure what this design is called but it's my favourite of the modern Unicomps: classic beige colouring, thin bezels, no horrors around the lock lights! Excellent condition, all working. Original box. £80 £70

Sold keyboards:

ALPS
1. Dell AT102W, Black Alps, somewhat yellowed. £25 SOLD
2. Dell AT102W, Black Alps, no yellowing. £30 SOLD
3. Opus-branded Chicony 5160 series, White Alps, some yellowing, switches in decent condition. £45 SOLD
4. Vale-branded NTC, White Alps, heavy metal backplate, all-round excellent condition. £60 SOLD

CHERRY
6. Black G84-4100 with Cherry ML switches. I personally quite like these switches and the compactness of the keyboard - but I already have another. £15 SOLD
7. Tandem-branded G80-1191HGB, MX Black (vintage black? Maybe - couldn't find anything definitive about when the cut-off date was, or if it even matters! Anyway, switches feel smooth), doubleshot keycaps, very good condition (I've given it a bit of a wipe-down since the photo). £90 SOLD
8. Cherry G80-3000HFG, MX Blue, doubleshot keycaps with zero to minimal shine, excellent overall condition. £90 SOLD

TOPRE
10. Price reduced Leopold FC660C, factory-silenced 45g, black and blue keycaps, original cable, manual and boxes. Excellent condition. £140 £135 SOLD
11. Price reduced Leopold FC660C, 45g, white/beige and grey keycaps, fitted with Hasu programmable controller, includes original controller too, as-new condition with original accessories and box. £200 £190 SOLD
12. Price reduced again Realforce R2 PFU TKL, factory-silenced 45g Topre, white/beige keycaps, adjustable actuation point, basically new - used for an hour or so max. £180 £170 £160 SOLD

NEC BLUE OVALS
13. APC-H412, beautiful board in excellent condition, doubleshot keycaps, very interesting switches: light and crisp. £80 I have another of these which I'm keeping. As a couple of people are keen, I’ll sell my other one! SOLD

SMK
15. Tulip ATK with SMK inverse cross-mount tactile switches. Doubleshot keycaps, slight yellowing. A pretty rare and interesting keyboard, I think. £40 SOLD

BTC
16. Price reduced BTC 5100C, New-in-box, BTC dome with slider switches (the picture with the plastic off is my other one) This is the version with the 5-pin-DIN connector, so snappier domes than the PS2 version. Unique typing sound. £40 £35 SOLD

APPLE
9. Price reduced Apple M0487 with Mitsumi KPQ switches. Some paint on the rear case. £15 £10 SOLD

Lots of goodies if I was in the UK. Good luck with the sale.

How does that Vale w/white Alps sound? I've only seen a couple in the US and missed the auctions.

Thanks!
I'm going to borrow a decent microphone from work next week so I'll send you a recording.

The NEC is tempting me. I know the others but blue ovals remain an open mystery…

Not completely sure! It’ll be a test of willpower, listing that one.

Sure - have updated status.

Extra NEC added.

[norolim]

Anything US ANSI coming in the future (apart from the NECs)?

Looks like your inbox is good and full! I'll post here instead. Still possibly interested in an F.
