spawnerbr Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Hi all. I'm looking for a spare part key complete set for my Atari 800 XL. I need the DELETE key for a Mitsumi keyboard model. Need the keycap, the plastic plunger and the spring. Need too the metal plate from the function key for other XL but this can be from any model as I just need the metal cap. I have the plastic keycap without the metal part. Anyone can help me?? This are the pictures of my 800 XL. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beeblebrox Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 @spawnerbr Whilst I can't help directly and I'm not sure where you are based, I did see this on ebay UK: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143991343339 This is per key far as I understand. Might be worth you contacting them. Or buy a broken XL for parts. You can tell by looking at the keyboard in pics if it is the mitsumi one Also see here: Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+bob1200xl Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 I went through 20 XL k/bs and only found one Mitsumi. It is a hand-made unit that I don't want to sell or break up. Can't you bolt-in a different k/b? Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 $12.75 per key, yeah they can keep it, I'd whittle one out of wood before I'd do that crap more crazy crap, make an offer perhaps at a normal price like any other key on any other computer... use the OBO button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_The Doctor__ Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Or best offer, is a point... 12.75 is ridiculous... that's another point. You can also explore the others routes outlined among the threads, such as 3D prints, other sources, possible crossover use of switches and keys used on other systems. Best of luck Swapping out to a different keyboard is also a viable suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
