For the longest time I've thought this keyboard was a mechanical keyboard due to how loud it is. Can anyone tell from this picture?
The switches have an Alps mount as far as I can tell. That'll narrow it down somewhat. Here's a list to browse and compare: https://deskthority.net/wiki/Category:Keyboar … with_Alps_mount

Looks a lot like it I think.
Yeah it's an Acer keyboard actually now I recall. When I cleaned it out ages ago the plastic-y sheet thing inside was Acer branded. It doesn't say Acer on it anywhere else though... Basically I am selling the keyboard, is it a "mechanical keyboard" with those switches?
As far as I can tell it's a hybrid, a clicky membrane keyboard. Personally I wouldn't advertise it as 'mechanical' but rather as 'clicky'.
Otoh IBM Model M is basically the same concept (spring over membrane but different 'switch' mechanism) and everyone calls those mechanical.
