It was inevitable. It's almost impossible for a desirable keyboard to go unnoticed at auction at these days.

Even an auction titled "Computer Keybroad" with a potato pic, misplaced and buried in the Women's Clothing category, is likely to be found eventually.

This is what I have been banking on for a while. Almost got a Salmon Alps Dell AT101, a DC-3014, and something else for like $30, but the seller ended it early after realizing what he had

Total potato pic, and the title was 'computer keyboards' or something like that.

Sellers really need to stop allowing people with zero feedback to bid on their auctions. Probably just a troll account.

Essence of Ebay sunshine, you just have to live with it.

Probably the poor seller will be stuck with some sleazy moron, bidding over a $1000 on a new account, then see him disappear when the bill shows

Need to do a typing sound test. I want to hear what a $560 keyboard sounds like.

Worth like $200..

The price is dumb. More shill bids. Who on Earth is doing those? Whoever they are, they're a massive douche and should stop it.

Yeah, I find it interesting that the top bidder has ZERO feedback on their account.

E3E · « **Reply #20 on:** Sun, 17 April 2016, 17:24:42 »

This keyboard does not interest me visually in any way, and I think that Videonics logo looks tacky as hell. But hey, if people want it for the 1800 caps or actually like its case, then to each their own!

Sorry, I know there are some that probably hold this one close to their heart.

Just watch any further posts on Ebay, regarding this keyboard because the seller probably won't get the money and he'll be back to sell it.

Then again $560 for a new 1800 keyboard, isn't that exorbitant compared to some Kmac and SSK Models

I have heard that some of the cases from cherry were painted instead of cast the colour intended. Was this keyboard cast black?

ander · « **Reply #26 on:** Sat, 23 April 2016, 01:45:39 »

So this is a previously unknown Cherry variant? And it's NIB? Are those the only reasons it went for so much? It's not even clear what kind of switches it has?
