Need an 800XL keyboard

[dafivehole]

I posted this in the Marketplace but got no response. Does anyone have a clean, issue-free keyboard for an 800XL? I can't unstick the 7 key on mine.

 

Thanks,

Roger

I just bought two from him. Brand new metal backed ones, 30.00 each. Unfortunately you can't just buy the plastic Mylar anymore.

I just ordered one... super nice guy on the phone.

 

Thank you,

Just got it and installed it... no issues and my 800xl works perfectly now! What a great experience with Best Electronics.

 

Thanks,

That's great. Another 800 XL saved from the trash heap of history.

 

Brad has lots of knowledge, parts and ships fast.

Please do not toss the old 800XL keyboard... they are easy to fix.... crushed copper contact or missing plastic contact seperaters.... similar to 800 keyboards.. too many get tossed when all they need is the solder reflowed or the contacts clean adjusted or a seperator needs gluing in...

I'd never toss it... I have it listed in the Marketplace if someone else wanted to save it and repair it. I've had interest but it's the "mechanical switch version" and the other party wasn't interested in that particular version?

 

Thanks,

Roger
