What is the opinion of Reddit about the
Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional2 (Black No Keytop Print/blank)?

Looking at getting a hhkb and found this link on amazon Australia

https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B000F8OECM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1DRATO9HCEZFD&psc=1

Is this a standard price? ($233 USD). does this one seem sketchy at all? Should I look at other sellers?

Thanks in advance.

The keycaps are custom made from a dude on reddit (isn’t making them commercially, sent to me as a review sample) but, the board itself is an HHKB Pro 1 KB300BN (Black/Blank). It’s actually the rarest production model of the board but, you can get almost the exact same thing here.

Only difference is:

• USB Hub on the back (low power so don’t expect to do anything with it)

• Printed Logo in the bottom right hand corner

• Centered USB Port

Otherwise, it’s identical. So basically functionally, they’re identical, aesthetically, minimal differences. You can sand off the logo if you so desire, though, you’ll have to do it with care.

Well you can apparently get it for 389.98€ if you want to spend more, even that’s “only” ~$443 though.

Aren’t they about 200ish USD new? Amazon seems to match up with that anyways.

Amazon Japan is about $180 shipped new:

Hello, sorry for not replying to you straight away. After consideration, I think that your offer is a bit low. A blank black hhkb costs upwards of £160 on Amazon. A pok3r with mx blues costs £100.

I’d happily trade it for £45 though. Thank you for contacting me!

I’d buy a HHKB. I hear good things about the Topre switches.
