Is this a joke? It's like 2000 dollars for a chiclet keyboard, what am I missnig here.

No, he's probably trawling through Ebay for someone who has more cents than brains and thinks that because they paid a lot for a keyboard it must be worth alot.
Here is the closes thing I could find to it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bloomberg-Keyboard-Vintage-Original-Model-Financial/133337306807?hash=item1f0b85d6b7:g:iA0AAOSwnkReSzs6
It went for mere 100 bucks, which shows that there is a market for these, but probably for company's that use it still, or for people who just HAVE to have everything with the name of the company on it. (Whew, gotta be careful here, I've got that sort of thing going on with IBM)
This would be a good keyboard to post in: Not so great keyboard finds: (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90939.400)
