But I can do that very much. :evilgeek: In fact I sent the seller a message a couple of days ago. ;)

You know those keyswitch keychains that an eBayer has been making? He just got his hands on some beam springs, apparently. I didn't think the other keychains were worth what he was asking, but a beam spring novelty for $15 seems reasonable.

Ahah, I'm almost interested! Beamsprings are so big that I don't want one, but hey, just a little small keychain... :mrgreen:

I would love to have a source for single beamspring switch assemblies in Europe! Very afraid I will break one during restauration.

Okay, I'm a bit ignorant on the price range for all beamspring models, but to be honest, I've seen some go for $150, so this price is a bit exorbitant, unless you consider the labor of making the keychain, but still.

I've seen some go for $300 (and I'm sure some have gone for more), but I've seen some go for way cheap too (relatively speaking).

Hm, the price is all right if you're a US resident, at least.

Oh man. That is super tempting. Not everyone is lucky enough to own a beamspring, with the crazy prices they go for. $15 is a lot for a single switch, but I think I could probably sacrifice 2 meals to try one if I think about it too much.

Norwegian Cherry G80-1000 HAN, looks very well kempt. According to the seller there's no discoloration whatsoever and it has been kept in its box at all times:

Very nice. Why don't you buy it? That board should belong to a Norwegian.

Well, I'm not quite Norwegian yet (moved here 3.5 years ago) :P
Also, it's outside my budget for the next couple weeks, and I'm not that much into linear switches anyways. So I hope someone more fond of it will pick it up.

Nothing, that's just way overpriced even though it is rare and in quite good condition.

Looks like the DC-3014 (with white ALPS) has been relisted.

DC-3014 (white Alps) < Omnikey 101 (white Alps). This means it should be realistically priced at about $75 max.

What a boob... I sent a message saying that 1k is WAY too low, and people must be thinking it's a fake. Should go at least 2x to get REAL interest. What I love is someone is actually watching :)
