Price Check: How much is my _____ worth?

Daniel Beardsmore · 21 Sep 2014, 14:35

The Toshiba has tall caps, so probably Alps SKFL or integrated dome.

Siemens — could be Cherry ML, or RAFI. Maybe those mystery switches that don't appear in the RAFI catalogue.

The Everex has short caps, so the odds of Cherry MX mount is very low. ML is unlikely. It would be cool if it was [wiki]Alps ultra low profile[/wiki], but I suspect it's rubber dome or scissor.

In all three cases, the seller needs to pull a keycap from each.

Is a G80-3000HED with MX-Clears worth anything? Its more beige than grey though.

7bit · 24 Sep 2014, 14:37

Earlier keybaords are baige and later are grey. A photo would help.

It know exactly, but ca. 50-60 EUR if n-key rollover and 20-30 if not.

pollo · 24 Sep 2014, 15:14

There you go.

Its pretty old and got that DIN connector.

Hey price check for:

Ducky Mini (first generation) MX Brown - White LED

and

Ducky G2PRO TKL MX Red - TKL (PBT caps)

How much is my Filco Ninja TKL with browns worth?
Bought it early 2012 and it has chinese inscriptions as well, and no shine on any of the keys.
I might've lost the rubber feet though.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a price check on a Cherry Olivetti doubleshot set (keycaps only) in FR ISO layout, knowing that the Caps Lock was modded to center stem? Not quite sure I'm ready to sell just now, but I'm thinking about it...

What's the condition like? Any shine/yellow?

Kouni · 12 Oct 2014, 18:00

It's in pretty good condition, no yellowing, no shine that I can tell of, the surface looks uniform on all keys, however there's a small scratch on the backspace.

Kouni · 14 Oct 2014, 15:42

How about a (potato) pic? What do you think?

detto87 · 14 Oct 2014, 16:54

Want to sell Topre Realforce Tenkeyless 55g in white. (this board: https://elitekeyboards.com/products.php?pid=rf_se08t0)

I got one brand new (still in sealed box) and one that is used for about 1-2 months.

IvanIvanovich · 14 Oct 2014, 16:58

FR Olivetti isn't very common, though FR isn't quite as sought after either. Probably wasn't a great move to modify anything on something like this. Kind of tough to price but I would guess something between $100-130.

Strange Olivetti set. F5-8 is beige.. It's usually white. I'm really not sure what it's worth, hopefully someone else can help you out.

Kouni · 14 Oct 2014, 17:43

Thanks for the info, yeah I had noticed the difference on f5-8.

Probably wasn't a great move to modify anything on something like this.

I know, but this was the first set I ever found for my first mechanical KB, I was young and innocent and a little stupid...

If you consider selling (or trading) it after all, I might be interested.

Hi just want to ask what my 1 year old Corsair k65 with and without keycaps it worth. The spacebar spring got change to a mx grey one. it got no warranty

I think that without the space bar it will be next to worthless as the 6.5u are quite rare.
Is it an ISO board? I might be interested

Jimmy54669 · 20 Oct 2014, 15:43

Yes it is ISO the thing is i dont know if i have all the original Keycaps. Iam using atm a mix off red with white legends doubleshot ANSI and some original ones like enter, shift, spacebar i can do some pics later

acolombo · 22 Oct 2014, 16:03

How much a Corsair Raptor K1 is worth?

I've found one, brand new, for 30€.

It has MX blacks (which I don't like, that's why i'm unsure about buying it) but it should have nice double shot keycaps. I'm interested because I think the price is very good... What do you think about it?

If someone else is interested and I decide I am not, I could proxy it to someone here or trade it for something else.

HzFaq · 22 Oct 2014, 16:17

(Presumably that's a Cherry Raptor K1, I can't find a board called the Corsair Raptor K1).
Based on this assumption I'd say €30 for a brand new Raptor with doubleshots is a steal...

Worth pointing out that Raptor's have a little skirt around the bottom of the switches for stability, which means that even though it is a PCB mount borad, you can't open the switches without desoldering them, so if you do end up buying it you will need a soldering iron if you want to mod it.

edit - Just seen that there is a Corsair Raptor, I wouldn't pay €30 for it though.

Nuum · 22 Oct 2014, 16:30

Are you sure, that it has doubleshots? There is a more common version with lasered keycaps. If it has doubleshot keycaps 30€ is a very good price for it. I'm interested, if you don't take it. Which layout does it have?

IvanIvanovich · 22 Oct 2014, 17:33

Corsair bought out the Raptor brand. It will be the newer version with lasered keys for certain. Still, a pretty good deal for a G80-186* as it is one of the nicer nkro variants of the 1800.

I'm not sure at all. I've only seen the doubleshot keycaps on Mr.Interface video on Youtube, other than that I don't know anything about this keyboard in particular. Also, this one has a French layout so I think the only way to find out is to unbox it and check... If someone else, that likes MX blacks more than me, wants to buy it I'd be happy to pass the deal, else I think I'm gonna buy it anyway, because it's pretty cheap, and I will use it as a backup keyboard.

Thanks guys for the help!

Where did you find it out of curiosity? Some other French ones were sold around that price and they were doubleshot.

I found it on ebay from a German seller, I didn't won the auction but then I received a direct offer from the seller...

How much is my NIB black 1991 ISO (azerty) winkeyless Cherry G80-1800HEF (double-shots and vintage clears) worth?

(The box was a bit savaged though, but the original G80-1800 sticker is still here)

ramnes · 27 Oct 2014, 14:57

And the picture (reverse space bar master race!):

shreebles · 27 Oct 2014, 21:31

Nice, and weird! Is that the original space bar? I never could flip any of the space bars on my Cherrys because the stems were always asymmetrical.

photekq · 27 Oct 2014, 21:34

Cherry 7x (like the one above) spacebars are symmetrical

The spacebar is the original one but it was reversed by myself, it's a compulsive problem of mine.

To be more precise, it's a Cherry/Siemens G80-1814HEF.

Edit: if someone wonders, it's gone for 80€.
