If this is a Poker 2, you can get it from banggood! And keycaps are probably going to be on Massdrop again. I don't know about the TEX case, because it's too expensive for me

Hey guys, so I'm trying to sell my Ducky YOTS for maybe a QFR or something (TKL keyboard).

What's the best way to sell it? Ebay? GH Classified, LTT Classy, Reddit sales? If I sell it on a websites's classifield, what payment/selling platform would I use?

I would start off with maybe tech forums and field offers get a feel for what you could pull in and then make a decision to either put it up for bid on something like ebay or sell to someone in a forum.

I see,thanks. I was on the reddit mech keyboards hardwareswaps etc and am trying to get it going.

See you got the idea Basically just field the pricing out there and see if there is a price you can settle with there. And if that doesn't work maybe ebay's a option for you. Mainly just trying to get you the maximum value from your keyboard.

Just picked up my Model M, and I have to say that this is by far the nicest feeling keyboard I've ever typed on. SUPER loud (sorry dad), SUPER tactile, and SUPER heavy, just the way I like my boards.

I just got my hands on my dream board which I didnt think would happen with such ease. *dances around in circles*

What is it?

KMAC Happy Gunmetal Full Layout

KMAC Happy Gunmetal Full Layout

I could only find TKL pics on google, but it doesn't take a genius to imagine a full layout. Looks nice, guessing blue switches?

Completely incorrect. Here is a picture for ya.

[Phobophobic]

Ah, the inclusion of "full layout" confused me, thought that meant full-sized board.

See those blocks they are removable that what makes it full layout. A normal one has that built into the top of the case just like a normal HHKB.

The keyboard is a Vortex Poker 2. Here it is with blue switches: http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=920

The keycaps aren't stock though, and those specific ones can be found for $60-$70. http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=773

Finally, the outer case is metal: http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=627

What a catch, congratz!

I see that the GB for Duck viper has started, but pretty sure KMAC has thicker aluminium

And it is also a KMAC which should be with its other brothers and sisters.

I dont know why but of the Korean cutoms I like the KMAC line's the most. Ill be rebuilding this guy at somepoint but ill have to find the parts. In the meantime I might finally get to building my LZ-GH which has been delayed mostly by my desktop. I have had all the parts for at least 6 months now I believe.

[Bschro4]

Wohoo another club I can join. I got a cherry mx red Corsair K95, and will be picking up the RGB K95 when it comes out.  I would love to try a ducky shine 3 though.

Yeah I love my KMAC so much too

and LZ-GH is also high above the list, I'll be having my Lightsaver v2 soon

I believe it would be my last Korean Custom since I've slowly moved most of my keyboard spending to other hobbies recently

 

pictures will follow once I got my Lightsaver

[geogga]

Which GBs for 60% Koreans can I join that are currently taking orders? It's a tad difficult to navigate that subforum lol.
And nice KMAC!

 

NVM, saw "current GBs active"

The Duck and Viper look nice and Is pretty cheap , may want that hehe although I forgot a bit about building a keyboard (never done it b4), only problems are:

putting that chip thing and those other stuff on the PCB

the soldering of the switches |which doesn't look too difficult.

Welcome to the club.........where the cool guys hang out!

I needed to piece that keyboard together myself

 

You can buy everything to build it, though. Everything you see is:

 

Poker II (white) Keyboard

TEX Aluminum Low-profile Case (Anodized Blue)

Vortex Double-shot PBT Blue/White keycaps (v.2)

 

All together, it cost me about $270 at retail. Keep an eye out.

I am really pissed that Corsair has said nothing about when the new release date will be for the k70 rgb. I mean I have been waiting for something like this for years and now it is being delayed. Come on Corsair, a simple FB message will do!

If you realky want to show them you shouldnt buy it.

I also dont get why people have said they have waited forever for this. There have been RGB boards before and im pretty sure most of the people who are going to buy these didnt even know a mechanical keyboard exsosted 3 years ago.

I have known something like this would come out in time (hence, waiting for it), and it isn't about the LEDs for me, but i do think it is awesome and a fun thing to mess with. The software they are releasing with will be AMAZING if it actually works. Being able to script your own code for it will be a fantastic change of pace. I will now be able to take my keyboard around and use complex macros built into my keyboard rather than the horrid kiddie macro software. I have used AHK forever and it has some limits, as well as needing it to be downloaded on the computer you are using. With this I can just hook up my keyboard and use my LUA scripting to run quick commands and fix basic issues.
