never understood industrial keyboard hype... build quality is same as any other model M SSK... Paint and blue keycaps is not worth it...
No kidding! There are two reasons people spend that kind of dough on boards that are only superficially different:
- The idea, "Woo, I have something a bunch of other people wish they had!"
Sometimes we can be real monkeys.
Yep, the only reason I posted this is because is is an auction, though the reserve could still prevent it from being sold at a reasonable price... In my opinion, reserve auctions are a really poor way to sell stuff. Either set a fixed price auction or list it as an auction and you'll most likely get high market value...
I couldn't agree more.
Hiding your minimum price to encourage bidders? Excuse me? You want to inspire confidence in bidders—not give them the idea you're some coquettish, passive-aggressive seller who'd avoid being direct and honest if any problems came up.
It also seems to me that people who hide their true start prices don't have confidence in them. Is it possible they don't think their stuff is
worth that much, and are embarrassed to say what they really want for it?
Yet when I posted these theories on an eBay forum, people leapt to Reserve Pricing's defence. Sellers, of course; there's no reason any buyer would prefer it, unless they liked playing hide-and-seek.
