It's a beautiful board in immaculate condition.  Cool find.  Love the ebay user name "mmflp" (mechmarketflip?).

If I wasn't stuck with student loans, I would actually love to buy it. Maybe someday ... It's such an awesome keyboard! haha I know right? Three NIB Unsavers were sold about 10 months ago on mech market for nearly $2k each. Now curious if he was one of them.

Seems reasonable. Ordinary used ones easily sell for half that amount.

“Any split that is higher than 5%,” the letter states, “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump's campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”"

This looks to be from the same batch of those nib unsavers found a while back judging by the custom data entry keys which remind me of some early Lexmark era Model M keys. I want one but hey I have a new Model F77 on the way  :D

First of all it's not new, it's refurbished. It also has several scuffs and scratches which I confirmed with the seller. Also seller refuses to give proper high res pics. This should be sold as used. Don't trust a seller with no reviews.

Was gonna buy this but waiting for a proper NIB.

Yeah, this looks to be one of the ones that were on mechmarket for $2k fairly recently.  Ironically, since ebay charges a 10% final value fee, it would need to sell for $2200 just for the seller to break even.  Isn't quite as exciting of an auction to watch with only 2 bidders so far and one retracted bid, but guess we'll see what happens!
