Title: IBM enter and left shift
Post by: theferenc on Sun, 27 March 2011, 20:52:11

I'm looking for a pair each of left shift and enter keys for an IBM Model M.

I can trade an ISO (with appropriate stabilizer plug for the enter) version of each, or pay cash money.

How much did the new keys cost? I have a few missing top half keys on a model m.

That's interesting. They wanted $2 per key when I asked for those.. that's $14 for the lot.

Considering you can buy a whole 101/104 set for $20 or so...
