i want to buy that keyboard just so i can clean it

sometimes when i am in work and its a quiet day i will find a keyboard ( usually one of the crappy white apple ones) and strip it bare and give it the full cleaning treatment

people get very confused when they come back to a clean keybord

G80-0439, I might put a cheeky snipe on this one, fair warning.

Should be, I've had alerts for them 3 or 4 times in the last couple of months so they obviously aren't selling. The same seller has some POS IBM boards as well IIRC.

I'm not a fan of the boards with the alpha section above the matrix keys which is why I've not posted them before.

andrewjoy · 18 Mar 2015, 11:15

if you have seen it a few times then it may be worth offering him less for it

it could be an interesting variant on my gamepad project

( has new caps now will update you all in a thread when its been modded to MX red ( 4 blacks together on a 4x4 key are hard to press

)

We can't see the picture, you have to upload it somewhere other than a GMail attachment

Works! But Mu's tip is good too.

HzFaq · 18 Mar 2015, 11:25

They aren't something I want/need/would use tbh and as much as I'd like to run a mini GB, I'm in the middle of renovating a house and can't dedicate the time required.

I still haven't got my Access up and running either which I'd prefer to one of those anyway.

ramnes · 18 Mar 2015, 11:33

We bought our Pennine boards with Devlin caps and MX browns from that Ebay seller. Everything was fine. My 2 cents.

Findecanor · 18 Mar 2015, 15:20

SGI Granite on Swedish auction site Tradera. ANSI layout. PS/2. ~ 17 euros.

The same seller has also Cherry Raptor Gaming K! keyboard for sale, with lubed Cherry MX Blacks. Norwegian layout. I'd guess the keycaps are POM, lasered with infill.

Is the seller one of us?

Muirium · 18 Mar 2015, 15:22

Nice Granite. Shipping outside of Sweden always sucks though…

scottc · 18 Mar 2015, 16:15

SGI Granite, very nice.

andrewjoy · 18 Mar 2015, 16:34

nice SGI , why does all the nice stuff turn up when i am booking a holiday and only have limited money

scottc · 18 Mar 2015, 16:36

The shipping on it would probably be atrocious anyway, or else you would've already lost it to me, so don't worry.

andrewjoy · 18 Mar 2015, 16:37

I will get one one day. Its them caps .... they are the sexy ! Also damped white alps want to give em a go

So smorda=lubed? Interesting.

I see dimples, so I'm inclined to agree about those being POM.

Someone else here has already asked me to be a proxy... but then he looked up how much shipping would be and backed out.

Stabilized · 18 Mar 2015, 18:46

A Cherry phone num/keypad (G80-3705HPU); interesting caps, seems to be doubleshot?

Edit: Seems that Guk posted the same one a few pages back (now relisted), has mx black switches.

40 Euros are twice the shipping cost from Germany to Sweden, what is wrong with the Swedish post oO

I found this which vaguely looks like a model m... Could it be mechanical?

Muirium · 19 Mar 2015, 00:21

The "US of US" eh?

It does look like a Model M, but not even all Model Ms were mechanical! So who knows.
