Further thinning the heard ...it must be done!
[SOLD] I have my Epson BFK. Absolutely love this thing. I got it because it was a bloody BFK. I have primarily used the num pad module with my HHKB. The caps on this beast are stunning. Here's a link to my eBay listing for further pictures and other details: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334252121722
£299 delivered to Mainland U.K.
Next up, possibly the prettiest board I own, my Focus FK-2000 Plus. Complicated White Alps. Here's the link to eBay for further info: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334229977311
£99 delivered to Mainland U.K.
Lastly, my NOS FK-9200. Hate the track ball, love the rest of it, even the switches. The eBay listing: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334229959847
£49 delivered to Mainland U.K.
Willing to ship worldwide. Open to offers, part exchanges, trades, etc.. I'm trying to thin the heard to justify buying an F or maybe even a Beamer!? Open to anything though. Variety is the spice of life but there's only so much shelf space/money!
Any questions or further pictures required, PM me.

'kinell I'm glad to see the prices here are much more approachable than your prices on eBay.
When I first saw that BFK up for 600 quid a few months back I was speechless, could only communicate via images

Six hunner is pretty cheap up in the Unobtainium highlands of IBM. Pretty sure you’ve got some top choice Cherries worth a lot more, as well. Anyway, we agree on the handsome DT discount. Ebay is made of strangers, while forums are full of friends.

Aye but a BFK doesn't reside in the IBM highlands or in the glistening Cherry orchards. 600 quid had me spitting my tea out.

I’d say 300 is a very good price considering: you don’t have to spend time hunting for one; it’s tested and working; delivery is included; the seller is completely reliable and does a top job packaging items.

I'd say it's a good price too. At least, if you're in the UK/EU and you really want one.
For reference, the most recent auctions:
After shipping and proxy fees they're not too far off, although the two pricier ones were NIB from what I can tell. The auction prices are a bit irrelevant though; if you really want one, you don't want to have to wait potentially months for another to show up. I'd say skipping the queue is worth paying a bit more, and I speak from experience in waiting in the queue. I said they're fairly common, but I meant that with respect to other nice, collectible Japanese keyboards like this one. It could still take a while!

I absolutely take the piss on eBay. I really did go overboard when I saw the NIB one listed for £1200! I try to subtly add mention of DT on my listings. I would hope that DT members know to contact me on here and that that wouldn't be the price they'd expect.

As mentioned above, BFK has gone. Focus boards still up for grabs. I'd be open to part-ex for an F, or a hotswap board of some description. Open to offers of any description to be honest.

Well that's the thing: the HHKB itself was just the final piece of the plan…
(That and a second Hasu BT controller. Wincing at the thought of Brexit customs getting their hands on that!)
