At the end of year charity event held at Yongsan, it would be Jaedong's signed keyboard which would be the star of the show.
On the 29th, Jaedong's keyboard from his time in Team 8 (T/N: Leopold FC700R with Cherry Brown switches), signed by him, was auctioned off and sold for 250,000 KRW (T/N: Approx. 235 USD). Beginning at 50,000 KRW, it was a fierce bidding battle between two fan girls. Even Jaedong was surprised at the winning amount.
Along with Jaedong's keyboard, a mouse pad signed by Thorzain, a warmer signed by HerO and a fur hat signed by JYP were sold to fans. On STX's side, Trap's mouse and hoodie, hyvaa's keyboard and Bogus' jumper were the most popular pieces of items to be sold.

hahahah fangirls! i wonder how much the other items fetched
|
I don't care how much the fur hat costs. I would have bought it. If only cause a fur hat is hilarious.
|
Wow!
That number seemed staggering and then I saw the conversion -_-. Even so, it is a lot. Glad to see Jaedong being a baller as usual.
|
many keyboards sell for 175 usd, I don't see how 235 is a lot?
|
I think she would've paid more for the hug she got as an extra for free .

It was his Leopold FC700R.

The funny thing is those keyboards that most pros use are like 35 dollars so selling for 235 is a pretty hefty markup

Funny how Flash's keyboard was raffled at the MLG Tournament of Champions. It's like the big bosses give away their equip to show that times are changing. Happy for the person who won Flash's keyboard. I wouldn't even touch it tough. It was so fuckin dirty.........
A prize of 250$ is pretty cheap as a new original of that kind costs about 120$ alone. For a Legend like Jeadong I would at least expect a 4 digit number in Korea but I guess Starcraft is not that popular after all.

Bidding war between fangirls, how exciting!
|
235? Thats not that expensive :3 I would totally bid more than that and I'm not even a fan girl.
|
considering its signed and not used is probably around 5 times the original price, that's quite a lot.
