    Particularly impressed by the Model M - would love to give one of them a try... Was watching a Model M2 on eBay that finished today - was really cheap until the last few minutes then shot up to over £50 inc P+P...

    On another note, in preparation for the arrival of our Klaxon etc order I feel I should make a bit of space - as such could I get a price check on a couple of keycap sets? I'll list here first then move to DT / GH.

    1st - Stock Poker Keycaps (ANSI) (I think they're ABS) - They have been used (not by me) but seem in fairly good condition with very little shine. The only slight discolouration seems to be on the WASD cluster.

    2nd - Filco Ninja Keycaps (TKL ANSI) - Never used as I took them straight off my Filco when it arrived to put on some Cherry DS caps instead.

    I also have some other bits and bobs that I am pretty certain I can price myself.

    Finally, does anyone have any idea as to the going rate for (a) individual switches; (b) individual stems; (c) individual springs; (d) individual switch housings.

    1. $10
    2. $40?
    3. used switch $.50, stem/spring $.20-30 depend type, housings... zero usually unless someone has broken them while switch modding... maybe certain people might buy the vintage ones with the really big logo.

    Nice score on the G80-3000HQMGB Shirty.

    Cheers for that - about what I was thinking (well slightly more but including postage) - by switch housing I mean the switch itself (the bottom 'half' that actually solders to the PCB not the top 'half' - not that I have any spare, was just wondering)

    Mine have also arrived! I love the skull but can't get to like the colour or feel of the WASD set.

    ^^ Hahah, was just about to comment the same. I'm not too into the skulls (most colours), but wanted to try the feel of the WASD.

    ... and yet considerably cheaper than getting a new unicomp one. Hmm.

    I should probably save my money anyway ^^
