    I usually order parts from Heartland Services.. But I went to quote out keyboards for CF29/30's and they are asking 443.47 a pop! The keyboards do need to be hard and black lit.. But still, that price seems wrong.

    Any recommendations on trusted places to order from?

    If you are referring to an emissive backlit keyboard, then eBay is your best bet! They are expensive none-the-less. $150 or so

    I'm looking to order 15+ for around $150-200 each. Sadly eBay isn't an option for me. Work in Government and they don't like using eBay.

    Heartland is your only choice then. They'll stick it to you!

    Heck... If we are paying $450 for toilet seats and $500 for hammers.... I'd say the Heartland price is a deal in comparison! ;)

    Not to mention the EIGHT HUNDRED BILLION dollars we're giving to the banks so they can feel comfortable after gambling away America's economic security.
