This happened summer of 2013, but the first contact with them was early 2013.

Could you please send them that ebay link?

I don't want to call them again, and their website is down (no more e-mail), and I'm not spiteful.

And part two:

Either the last buyer backed out or they have more than one.

I was messaging him before the end of the first auction, and he told me that he might be able to get one more. A couple days ago I got another message from him saying he had indeed found another and he offered to sell it for $500 + shipping. Pretty tempting considering the rarity but way out of my budget. It will be interesting to see what this one ends up going for.

Is that maybe this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-Vintage-Clicky-Keyboard-RARE-4700-Model-F-/251639460951?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item3a96e17457

Either way, here you go. Another 4704 to bid for

<EDIT> yup, looks like the same seller.... Good luck everybody.</EDIT>

Seller contacted me back after I ebay messaged him saying his vendor (likely rjr in atlanta) had two. I was expecting this for a while.

He also tried to hawk the second one (this one) for about what the first one went for before he even received it.

Sounds like a shyster

probably just looking to make money(as much as he can get): expected behaviour on eBay.

Good to see the second one went for a much lower price.

If seller has a third and a fourth, prices should drop nearer $100 which will trigger my genuine interest.

Which one sold for a lower price? I only see one at $200 shipped with 2 days of bidding to go. My guess is it’ll go for about $500.

Bad ass but unfortunately it would just be a show piece for me.

[The_Beast]

Funny that someone here has a source for them and is selling for $150 shipped. I know I bought one
