comptek is my idol.  imagine these were somehow knockoffs lol like high quality watch or phone knock offs.  whatever they are he is a very smart investor.

i remember when i was into gaming some seller claimed to have dead stock sega usb gamepads from 1996 i think.  anyways he sold a bunch for like 100$ then like 3 other sellers started selling them and the price dropped to 20$.  the boxes were exact replicas of the og boxes.  and the actual product was indistingishable from the original as well.

what if comptek has like 3,000 boards.  he would be a millionaire.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm willing to bid $200 but i'm guessing that won't win :p

$200 might work.

Japanese earthquake aftershocks could take out the Internet everywhere except your connection.

But about as unlikely as shill bidding working here I'd say.

I believe all but 3 prefectures have internet in Japan. At least this was true right after the quakes. Kinda cool how I check my facebook and all my friends in Japan are posting they are okay.

Jeez I really want this keyboard but I feel I might regret it if its over $200

i dont think you will win bonzai!

you should invest the 200 in a mr. brainwash portrait or a low risk tax free mutual fund.

Apologise for reviving a dead fish, am just curious if the Seller have finally sold out, or she is just very shrewd to let the Japanese have some time-out to recover.
