Description: HIGH-DEMANDKEYCAPS FOR APPLE IIe INFO. NEEDED WHEN ORDERINGAPPLE IIe KEYCAPS:(1) What color is the BOTTOM of your keycaps: OLIVE GREENor BLACK?(2) Does your IIe keyboard have a NUMERIC KEYPAD at the right?(3) If I lack the correct bottom color of your keycaps, can theother bottom color be substituted?(4) What is the color of your KEYSWITCH STEMS: Eitherround BLACK-CROSS-STEM or THIN-CREAM-STEM ?(5) If the keycap is WIDE, how many "cross-sockets" areon the keycap's bottom side? For most keycaps, there isjust one cross-socket; a few keycaps have two or eventhree cross-sockets. These were salvaged from several 1984-1989junked IIe keyboards, with olive-green keycaps. Plenty of olive-green-bottomkeycaps are available, with thecross-mount on the bottom of thekeycap. Both the black and the "thin-white-stem" key-switches are stillavailable. The photos show olive- green keycaps; somewith olive-green bottoms, others withblack bottoms. Specify which bottomcolor is preferred. The $3.40 price is for each item,but higher price of $6.80 each forSPACEBAR or ESC. TOP-COLOR OF KEYCAPS CANNOTBE GUARANTEED ! Note that Apple IIEkeycaps are 30-45 years old; plastics canchange color with age, or with exposureto sunlight. Suggestion: If keycapcolor is important to you, BUY SEVERALIDENTICAL KEYCAPS so you can installthe best-color-matching keycap. Save anyextra keycaps received, for possiblelater use. $3.40 each, except that TWO are double this price @ $6.80 each:SPACEBAR and ESC. These twoare very high demand, and areoften out-of-stock. If buying theSPACEBAR, tell me its LENGTHNEEDED; the Apple IIe keyboardshad three different spacebar lengths. NO GUARANTEE ON THE KEYCAP COLOR!Note that the IIE keycaps are nearly40 years old. Color changes are likelyto happen to plastic during that verylong time interval. "HIGH-DEMAND" IIE KEYCAPS:These are now sold in this Ebay ad,at a higher price, because the "H.D."keycaps are in high demand.

(editorial comment) REGARDING APPLE II"KEYCAP SHARKS" I looked through the Ebay ads at others' offers for these keycaps - some are charging as high as$8.95 each for these keycaps or keyswitches.Yes, $8.95 for EACH KEYCAP! That high price is outrageously disgusting. No one at the annual KansasFest conference overcharges at all; Some at K-Fest give away their surplus items for free. The Ebay predators who overcharge are not part of the Apple II community; they are "sharks" who have heard that there is big money to be made from Apple II loyalists. These "sharks" would likely sell admissiontickets to their mother's funeral if they believed thatanyone would pay. They calculate that Apple II users are so desperate for particular items that they will pay ridiculously high prices. I hope that my lower price on these keyswitches and keycaps underpricesall the sharks, and puts them out of business!

But now, I amreturning to international first class mail becausecorrespondents report that Ebay's GSP fees are extremely high when lightweight small itemssuch as keycaps are shipped. International first class rates are approx, $17.00 dollarsfor a small shipment of ten keycaps, toapprox. $19.00 for a full set of keycaps. Anyoverpayment above actual postage costwill be refunded to the buyer immediatelyafter the shipment has been mailed.
