Those legends are insane. Wish I could get something like that for my current keyboards.

NIB SSK for 85...Someone got lucky!

Yep... Now I'm going to crawl into a corner and cry

Awesome find XMIT!

It's like a better looking AEK2 with space invaders.

Dell At101 for 73USD. Don't know if this price is ok, but I know that it is harder to find than the newer AT101W.
Sadly, the seller ships only inside US.

EDIT: it has black ALPS, not Salmon (thank you XMIT for pointing this out)

[XMIT]

IMO that is only a worthwhile deal on the Dell if it has Alps Salmon switches. But maybe others dig the old logo more than I do.

Alps Salmon, yeah, I had a feeling that that something was off but I could not remember what. In this case 73USD is a bit expensive

[seebart]

strange to see an AT101 with the old logo and black Alps. Yes that is expensive then.

Whoa:

And once again, Americans try ripping off Canadians on shipping:

They charge only $5.75 to ship it to Guam.

really?

Look here, same item, shipping to Romania:



Guam is an American territory, so... no "taxes" added

[SL89]

Guam > Canada

That UPS "Worldwide Saver" sure does save a lot. I'd hate to use the regular non-Saver one.

[XMIT]

They save your wallet from being too heavy.

Seriously though - I ship USPS Priority Mail International, which becomes a different service based on the destination. Does anyone else have recommendations for international shippers out of the US? USPS always comes out cheapest but the UK folks hate it because it becomes Parcelforce on their end.

Are you sure those WYSE boards are mechanical? Those keycaps are screaming rubberdome - they don't look like classic WYSE/SP font to me.

[andrewjoy]

I think they are rubber domes, i have had one of them, not bad domes but still domes.

[ramnes]

Seriously?

Has MX Black from what I've read.

[ramnes]

The Chyron doesn't have Cherry MX Clear?

[Blaise170]

Seems to. I saw one thread where the Max had blacks but every other thread I've found says clears.

They charge only $5.75 to ship it to Guam.

UPS international express services always costs at least $125 regardless of the weight in my experience. Ebay adds 10% for the final value fee since they take that much from paid shipping costs as well (this prevents people from having $1 items and $100 shipping and not having to pay a final value fee on the total rather than just the item price). Guam is cheap because it is a USA territory and probably just goes by regular USPS first class or priority mail and technically isn't even international.

I need to work on photos, but, the local Goodwill store is clearing out the old computer museum here in Austin. I say a Kaypro 4, an Apple IIc, a Franklin Ace 500 (I think), a TI Silentwriter 500 terminal (Micro Switch keyboard!) and some other goodies.

[kbdfr]

Some of you will probably drool…

guk pointed me at another set of those (which went for less as an auction). If anyone wants just a few key caps let me know. $2 each.

[IvanIvanovich]

That Leitch is non Cherry version. I don't remember who does make it, but it's clearly not the g81-3000.
