Interesting.  Same guy as the last Aussie SSK sale.  Perhaps he has a stockpile...

(It's not the same keyboard from last sale, different serial #)

If I were in his shoes, after I had determined the current "going rate" I would sell the rest at that fixed price.

Auctions are not a sure thing, and my experience is that the price might or might not rise after the first sale, but usually drops sharply after the second.

I'm waiting for the day some warehouse gets liquidated and a few thousand get unloaded on ebay at $50 a pop :D
