Is this even a mechanical keyboard? Looks nice, but I couldn't find information about it on the wiki.

No, pretty sure its rubberdome, not sure what flavour. If you can see a white plastic mounting plate under the keys its not going to be Cherry.

Crap. I was hoping it was an Alps board because I'd love to have those key-caps.

All of the new WYSE (like this one) are rubber dome.

Not sure I've ever seen white ALPS go for this much, but I guess we'll see:

It's still possible to get them for ~$120ish if you're patient and find the right auction.

It's been there for a while.

No one is going to pay current "Blue Alps" pricing for a plain White Alps keyboard ;) .

If this was a Northgate sporting all Blue Alps, it would of been picked up on the first day of listing. Time for the greedy seller to readjust his expectations, unless of course he's happy to leave it on Flebay for a year or two then maybe pricing shall change.

Wait Alps SKCM Blue keyboards are going for $750 USD now? That's steep.

NEW IN BOX model using all Blue Alps, at least then it would be worth the price that desperate simpleton wants on flebay for his old worn out white alps model.

Some people need to serve the full Flebay one year term to come to that conclusion. Remember the market chooses what your item is worth and currently plain "White Alps" aren't even in the same hemisphere of Blue Alps SKCM pricing, especially on any Northgate model.

There was a gold label omnikey 102 that was listed on eBay for like $500 that stuck around for a good month. I don't actually know if it ever sold - maybe it sold on reddit for (likely) less.

On a side note, if you're looking for some blue alps boards I have several that I would be willing to sell at less than $750. I'll take $600 for any of them =)

I would ONLY pay that amount you mentioned, if the keyboard is actually NIB ;) .

Anything less but first class condition, I usually ignore it.

The Omnikey101 I posted a while back went for a little less than $400 but that was NIB.

This 102 is a fixer-upper but at a much better price ($75) for someone wanting white alps.

Indeed - I got one for ~130 this month, but it took a lot of patience.

Not cheap, but I don't see these often. These keycaps are beautiful btw.

I bought one of these and it's pretty nice. If anyone here buys one make sure to tell the guy to ship it in an additional box. When he shipped mine, he just slapped a shipping label onto the front of the original box lol. Not like I wanted that to be in good shape.
