Hey, I got the scan codes, they're 7B and 79, check here https://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-8.html

(1) Where did you get the (internal) JP keyboard for your Thinkpad, Ebay or Lenovo parts sales?

(2) Imagine those 5 keys on your JP keyboard...

     _  _  _____  _  _
    |1||2||Space||4||5|

...how convenient is it for your left thumb to hit 1 and 2 and for your right thumb to hit 3 (Space), 4 and 5, each on a scale from 0 to 10? Bonus question: do you have small, medium or big hands?

And how did you get the idea to use a JP keyboard?

ps I use AHK, have to check out Sharpkeys!

1) that was slightly tricky I had to use buyee.jp

2) I have 2 of the 3 Japanese keys mapped to control/modifier and and the third mapped to space. Your picture seems to be off there aren't four modifier keys but three. The switch is quit seamless between a Mac and Windows. Medium Hands. I was analyzing keyboard layouts.

Hey me again, just checking out buyey.jp in order to order some stuff as well, so this is not just a freight-forwarder but an agent, means they do the actual buy of the product on the respective merchant sites such as Yahoo Auction etc.

How was your experience, would you use them again? And I assume you did a full managed buy?!

If this thread is getting restricted you can also PM me on reddit with the same username.

I had mixed reviews with Japanese auction site - one item arrived with good shipping, the other item did not and had freight shipping I believe. It was not a big deal to me but I would give them a low pass because there are no other options. This may be because of corvid.
