Title: [Collection Sell-Off] IBM Keyboard Collection [Model F's Model M's Beam Springs]
Post by: 127001 on Sat, 11 October 2014, 22:49:30: I've been presented an unique opportunity so I'm selling off my entire collection.

Ebay sale:

http://www.ebay.com/usr/austin127001

I'll be adding stuff throughout the next few days. I can probably do international shipping but buyers need to be willing to accept all risks associated (I'm not paying for insurance on international shipments as I don't have time to go through that process).

I'm aware of the high price of the kishsaver so we don't really need to go into that here. :p

Post by: 127001 on Mon, 13 October 2014, 06:23:28: The F AT and German Beam Spring Sold this morning. They're going pretty fast.

I MAY put up my SSK but I kind of bought it at peak market and it seems pretty low right now. Also I'm currently using it.

I would gladly take that ssk assuming it's at a reasonable price

Post by: 127001 on Mon, 13 October 2014, 20:10:09: I'll consider it, I know it would be up for less than the $300 I paid for it.

Post by: FrostyToast on Mon, 13 October 2014, 20:16:13: The only problem is that you would have to ship that to Canada.
I would pay the $50 that it would cost, but I don't know if you would do that.

Post by: 127001 on Mon, 13 October 2014, 22:03:28: I've shipped a couple internationally now.
Here's the deal:
I purchase one keyboard from germany. It cost me about $80 to have it shipped to the US. It took 5 & 1/2 months to arrive. When it did arrive the box was torn apart entirely ( I assume customs). It was only by a miracle that the keyboard arrived in perfect shape.

My conditions are:
1. I'm not buying insurance because I don't have time to wait for that to complete.
2. If the keyboard arrives destroyed or is lost thats all there is to it. The sale is final and there will be no refund
3. The buy has to pay for the cost of shipping and packaging.

Post by: FrostyToast on Tue, 14 October 2014, 07:39:45: It's only from the US to Canada which is practically a hop, skip, and a jump. I am entirely fine with all of your conditions as I have had keyboards shipped internationally from the US before.
