Figured I'd ask here in case someone else might also be able to help ...

I'm looking for 50 or so relegendable IBM buckling spring keys, non-yellowed, in as good condition as realistically possible. I struck out with /r/mechmarket, Unicomp, and Fentek, and I did not see them on elecshopper.com. Would you happen to have some that aren't on the site or would you or anyone else know where else to find them?

Thank you!

Ask Orihalcon. The only place I have seen relegendable IBM BS caps was on the F107s or F50s, and he took all the leftovers.

LOL! It's funny that you mention Orihalcon and F107s. The relegendable caps are for replacing the yellowed clear cap covers on an F107 that I bought from him!

I think my best bet is gonna be trying to figure out a way to de-yellow the ones I have.

Thanks!

Edit: Oh, and I signed up for the newsletter!

You just want the clear covers? Never mind, my guy is out of them

Oops. Sorry! I could've been a lot more clear on that.

Some of the Ambras in that style had 1-piece keys, which some people consider desirable.

If this is the one you are looking for, I have 3 in stock.

Security updates applied to the site, which for some reason disabled all shipping methods. USPS is now working again, so if you tried but were unable to checkout, please try again Some international countries are disabled because they do not allow the import of electronics or computer products older than 3 years, since these are considered ewaste. This includes almost all of Asia, Russia, China, Japan, Africa, and most of South America

PayPal problems should be fixed. If you received an error, please try again!

Yep. I got Paypal errors earlier this week. Now it works.

Do you even ship to France ?

If so what would be the shipping cost ?

Yes, I ship to France, but it is already sold! Sorry! Shipping would be over $60 to France.

oh well too bad, I think I'll never get one of those haha

I am closing my warehouse. Xmit is taking some things, and somethings are going in a huge batch to Wodan. I think Alh is taking the IBM caps. Anybody wants anything, please speak up. I will not be in the keyboard biz again.

Xmit will take over the website and sell things there.

Yes, I can confirm that this is the plan. I'm planning to head over Thursday to help catalog what is left, and take some shipping boxes and keyboards back to Austin.

Let's all wish elecplus the best in future endeavors. This was a tough decision, but I think it's for the best.

That is saddening to hear. Best of luck and I hope things start looking up for you beyond the world of keyboards.

Thank you very much for everything you've done for this community, Cindy.

You definitely will be missed around here Cindy! Thanks again for everything you've done for us! 50 years from now, keyboard enthusiasts will still remember your name and be grateful for the boards that they are still using thanks to you

Oh, my! Thanks for everything.

If your willing to let them go cheap i can take all the trackballs you have in bulk .

I've asked elecplus to suspend sales on elecshopper.com while we sort out the details of the Web site transfer and the warehouse move. andrewjoy, I'll follow up with you about the trackballs.

I fully expect that elecplus will remain active on Deskthority, but that sales will slow to a trickle. There is a personal move planned, and, I know that where elecplus is moving is sort of near what has been another source of finds in the past. So it's possible that sales will continue in a very limited fashion, perhaps once the situation improves some.

I remember finding great deals on elecshopper when I started this hobby, just before finding out about DT. Hopefully all is well.

I arrived too late in the buckling spring hobby. Model Fs getting too expensive
