It's not like ANYONE can get a patent! You must have to have an IQ of 12,000 to get one of those!

*Poor people can't get patents, ya gots ta have teh moneyz... (God it's painful to write improperly...)

If you don't like it here, and all us whiners and telling us how stupid we are, feel free to see yourself out. This community was here for a long time before you and will continue without you. If you don't like that, we're sorry we're not sorry. Bye now. Don't let the door hit your ego on the way out.

Your first handful of posts were about:
a) Making a profit off us
b) Complaining about us

If you want to sell us things, don't belittle us. People won't buy from you if you make them feel stupid. Business 101.

You win arguments by bludgeoning people with the fact that you have a patent? You're not the only one that has one. I'm applying for one too.

Come at me bro. You're not the only "smart" guy on GH. I'm going to go enhance my calm now. Talk to you never again.

Couldn't have said it better myself!

you seem very very familiar..

[Mike48]

You need to chill out and stop trying to cut me down. I'll make mincemeat of you in any debate about anything, so just keep swingin' at the breeze! Sooner or later, you just might hit it.

I'm smart enough to earn a very solid and honest living by bringing real value into this world. Go get yourself a pair of Maui Jim PolarizedPlus2 sunglasses with MJ's GLASS lenses not the plastic ones. Go out on a nice clear day in colorful surroundings and see what they do for you, then tell me just how stupid and idiotic I must be for inventing and patenting them! I dare you to do this, that is if you poor little whiners can afford a pair...I earn royalties on that patent and enjoy every penny knowing that it was EARNED.

You and your fellow GH'ers have done far more whining about me than I have done about you.
I'll leave when I'm good and ready to, or get booted for telling the truth.

Thanks for that bit of reassurance, Elrick. I should be ready to start offering these in a month or so. Not sure if I'll be able to post them here on GH, being a newbie to this forum, so I'm trying to decide between eBay and starting my own website specializing in all bolt-modded Model M's only. I've even got a few NIB SSK's, but had to pay so much to get them that I don't know if I can sell them at enough of a profit to make it all worthwhile.

What post would you say that was of yours?

You're doing a bad job by trying to explain the economics on NIB keyboards that you overpay for, and then expect everyone else to do the same.

Of course, I could have just as easily not "overpaid" but then I wouldn't have acquired what I wanted. Someone paid $320 for a USED SSK on eBay just the other day. Prices go up in response to demand. When demand continues (as it will for a long time) for rare items, the price necessarily goes up. People with low budgets complain and always have. Life goes on...

[Mike48]

"I read every word of them, but am too lazy to refute your sheer volume of vitriol that you've spewn onto this forum. You resorted to insulting me and my intelligence, and it hasn't worked."

Oh pa-leeze! You have no clue what vitriol really is. A tiny bit of the real thing and you would fold like a paper doll in the wind.

But you wanted $350 + shipping/paypal for a 1390120, which is a fullsize that doesn't have lock LEDs. And as I told you in the PMs "But $350 is an industrial/SSK level price (and even then quite a few go for cheaper)." Just because you *can* get over $300 for an SSK doesn't mean ANY NIB/NOB Model M will break that range.

"I read every word of them, but am too lazy to refute your sheer volume of vitriol that you've spewn onto this forum. You resorted to insulting me and my intelligence, and it hasn't worked."

Mike, sincere question: are you new to online forums?

Despite what you seem to think, you are not winning this exchange. You brought the annoyance and mockery of this community down on yourself with your laughably entitled attitude, and with every post you invite more pile-on.  Before too much longer you are going to cause this thread to be closed.
