M4 complete with separate numpad

IBM Keyboard 139745, 82F0379, 1397470

This looks like a new IBM M4 (the cute buckling-rubber-sleeve mini keyboard, but without trackpoint) and its accompanying numpad which you can plug in.  There are three of them in total.

I agree $100 seems a bit steep, even if it is a new matching set of keyboard+numpad.  You can 'make offer' though.  Apparently they've sold three out of six already, so either there are people willing to pay a hundred bucks, or the seller is willing to accept less.

Yeah, little bit on the steep side. They don't show up on ebay that often though.

I'm not entirely convinced these are new. The label on the back looks pretty old and worn.

M4-1 are more common.  M4 with not mouse stick is rare.  The sticker looks suspicious though.

Nice design! Why can't manufacturers make this kind of keyboard anymore? Sorry, off topic  \ ;D

duuuuuuuuuude. I want it so bad. But I'd much rather have the m4-1 with the trackpoint. Can't find any though. Then again, I really didn't look that hard. But duuuuuuuuuuuuuude. Would love either. Typing on these feels like smooth silky chalk from a smarties wrapper.
