Price Check: How much is my _____ worth?

Azrael · 22 Oct 2011, 08:56

Thanks for that estimation webwit!

Looking forward to an estimation about the Cherry if anybody knows about it.

sixty · 23 Oct 2011, 20:16

Not a lot for the G80-1800. ISO variants are extremely common due to a certain Berlin recycler. I would guess around ~15 Euros for the keys.

Azrael · 23 Oct 2011, 21:20

allright, thanks for the hint sixty

This Berlin recycler is offering a pallet with four hundred G80-1800 for a starting price of 120€ just now at eBay! ^^

Azrael · 25 Oct 2011, 15:13

Wow makes me glad I only have only one G80-1800.

edit: umm strange: did you guys notice that this seller has only 4 (four) user ratings although he is ebaymember since 2007? Thats pretty strange

...after offering 500 units for 200€ first and then for 190€ without any success.

He used to trade with another account (2000+ feedback).

Not much. You can get one in the US layout from ebay.com for $1 + shipping if you're lucky; otherwise they sell for $10-30. DE and UK layouts, I've seen them go for about E20 and L20 on their respective ebays. Essentially, if you want to sell your keyboard you're unlikely to find a buyer outside of your country because the shipping cost will be as much or more than the keyboard itself.

Guys, first post here and it's a question - sorry!

Anyway, I have (amongst other keyboards I'm trying to flog) a Ortek MCK-142Pro. It's a great hulking beast of thing with 24 programmable keys. The key action is actually pretty decent, but it's far too large for my uses these days.

It's in good condition, needs a bit of a clean but otherwise largely wear-free with only a small amount of shine noticeable on the return key and spacebar.

Soooooo... Any ideas on what it's worth?

Same question was already asked (with a photo of the beast) in this thread:
http://deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?f= ... 237&#p9237
but unfortunately found no answer yet.

Has somebody got an idea how much a g80-1502LQEDE is worth?
It has an integrated chip card reader and it is lightly used.

Best regards

Ah, yes - thanks, not sure how I missed that in a search. Mine's UK layout, guess I'll have to just throw it on eBay and take whatever I can get.

A few sold lately on eBay:
NIB for 15,50€: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/330627367233
NIB for 12,50€: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/130589451221
five, used, for 56,53€: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/220876108653
so it can safely be assumed that the market price is now somewhere round 10-20€.

TOZZIL · 01 Nov 2011, 12:15

Thx kbdfr!
Why is it then, that people put them up for sale for over 100 € as well?
Regards!

fossala · 01 Nov 2011, 13:30

Because they see cherrys RRP and think $$$

Okey, too true.

As I see the expensive ones don't sell anyway...

Azrael · 02 Nov 2011, 15:51

Hey guys,

I would be happy if you could give me some price checks on the following keyboards Im also putting up for sale in a different thread:

- Cherry MX 3000 with Cherry Blacks, AT plug, but works fine withPS2 Adapter
- Marquardt 06 F N/ 33, a mini keyboard with keys that feel similar to Cherry Blacks, (also AT connector but works fine with PS/2 adapter)
- Keysonic ACK-595, another mini keyboard unfortunately Rubber Dome switches only. But it has removeable keycaps. PS/2 plug. Very small and handy.

Grond · 07 Nov 2011, 23:35

I believe it's a Fujitsu Peerless there, isn't it? I could get it separately from the rest of the crap for 1 euro + shipping. I read the switches are very stiff, though. Are they worth trying?

webwit · 07 Nov 2011, 23:40

Unless you're curious, no.

I got rid of my Peerless keyboard and managed to pass the curse to someone else. It is a mechanical switch designed to feel like a rubber dome. It managed that. Nice click though.

dicho · 08 Nov 2011, 23:28

How much is this slim Cherry, PS2 with trackball (w/ Cherry ML switches)?

fossala · 08 Nov 2011, 23:34

Guys round here don't like ml switches but I think brand new they go for around 30 quid.

It took some time for me to figure out wth a "quid" is (I'm from Brazil). But ok, now I learned: quid = GBP.

30 quid brand new... with few years of use, 15~20 is a fair price, I guess... right?

Thanks a lot!

ripster · 09 Nov 2011, 00:43

I propose making the Euro the default Deskthority.net currency.

fossala · 09 Nov 2011, 10:11

But with the way the euro is going I am going to have to start making posts like "ooh got a model m for €83470000"

those caps are just dyed caps...in my opinion his asking price is way over the top.

What is the price he is asking? And who is he?
