WTS: 1st Gen Logitech G15 - Bose Companion 3s

[Alishe]

Selling these 2 items, don't use the speakers because I always use my Razer Carcharias headset. Keyboard is just a bit too large for me, and I don't use the macro keys. I love both of these items both are in pristine condition and am only selling because I could use the extra cash right now.

Can PM here or can bid on them on eBay. My prices are firm, non negotiable. However my auctions have no reserves so they sell for whatever they end at if you want to do it that way. I will end auctions early if anyone on here wants to buy them. Prices listed here do not include shipping.

dude, it sells NEW for 74

BIN on ebay for 42 bucks. http://cgi.ebay.com/LOGITECH-G15-GAM...d=p3286.c0.m14

[Alishe]

Good point, except that's not the same keyboard.

[Vandole]

just saying, you're priced a little high...

[Alishe]

Willing to bet it sells for higher than my buy out if it goes to auction.

[zoobernut]

What is the difference between the keyboard vandole posted and the one you did? From what I understand the one he posted is the newer edition and the one you posted is the old one. Is that correct?

[Alishe]

Absolutely.

[Alishe]

First generation keyboards are superior to the new versions. Hince, why 1st gens sell for double the price of what a 2nd gen sells for.

[zoobernut]

Ah interesting I did not know that. Why was the first generation superior? (sorry for all the questions I am curious because I just bought a brand new second generation and noticed it lacked the flip up screen part.)

[Darus Grey]

lcd+18buttons+wheel.

[Alishe]

Plus blue > orange. I've never used the new version but I've read over an over that they keys on the first generation are, "better quality" easier to use ect.

[zoobernut]

The newer version has the LCD.... the only difference that I can see from the pictures is the LCD in the old one flips up and it has the wheel thing.

[Mansin]

The newer version has 9 G keys.
Orange is ugly.

The price it's listed at is a steal. I just bought a rev1 for 108 USD on ebay.

[Vandole]

well, i'm going to have to say thanks... you convinced me to go buy a g15 and i somehow got my mom to pay for it, a friend is looking for a new keyboard, so i'll tell my friend about this and maybe i'll be able to get you a sale.

[Sonomaa]

Im seriously considering it, the lights in mine are starting to dim and Id like to either figure out how to mod them or just get a second one
the only thing better than 1 g15 original keyboard is 2 of them

[Alishe]

Buy today and I can go to a Tigers game tomorrow!

Now that I will call BS on. The keys on the 2nd gen G15 actually are better. They don't fade over time due to handsweat (go go playing competitive FPS games.) The original is hands down better in every other aspect though.

Still thinking about springing for the newest one. >_>;

New version is a piece of shit compared to the old one. only 6 keys instead of 18, no flip on the lcd, and ugly orange.

[zoobernut]

Hmm most of the opinions on the new version vs. the old version sound like just opinions. It doesn't sound like the quality is any different.

Personally I like the orange better than the blue. The reddish orange is less harsh on your eyes when it is dark.

It does look really nice and is at a good price though. GL to the OP hope you sell your keyboard.

THe main difference between the new and the old as far as quality is concerned, is the old has 3x the amount of programmable "G" keys, which some people may want, as well as the scroll wheel which is convenient for adjusting volume. I personally dont have a use for that many G keys, but some people do find a use for every one of them, and for that I would suggest the old.
