Just saw this, and of course ATM it's quite impossible to join him by phone, so many people don't know the value of things they sell...

A nice model M between 2 crap keyboards for only 2 euro ? Yes... trying to get it but I guess he's got many calls since early this morning... please let it for me, it's an AZERTY anyway and I miss my ex-model M :/
There should be a mandatory licence to sell stuff on the web LOL
-
I promise you, I will not try to take it
-
I'm confused. Are you complaining because it's cheap or are you mad or what? I thought paying the least amount possible was what we all aim for.
-
No LOL I'm complaining because I've not bought it yet, my only hope is that only noobs will see this offer until I can contact him...

Advice? Do not post on GH if you want stuff cheap.
-
Also, just hope the seller is not a casual GH member who happens to browse the keyboards section ;)
-
IDK but still impossible to join him... :mad: Anyway if he was a casual GH member, he would not sell 2 euro that stuff untill being either a troll or an idiot^^ I'm a casual too, but although I may sell one day my G80-11800 I will never sell my ALPS Bull even darving lol
-
Yessss, got it^^ for 10 euro but it's like new omg

It'd be hilarious if it turns out it's a rubber dome version and the guy knew what he had all along.

Yes, and the photo is terrible.
But a 71G would be a blue label and that one looks black from here.
Twice I have gotten stuck with a Quiet Touch and managed to unload it on ebay for about $15. I was careful to sell it honestly, of course.
-
Thanks for the advice, I did not know there were domes models with the same shell, this keyboard was part of an IBM PC 330 machine, anyway I asked for back sticker pics to ensure it's a model M.
But the one I had got a blue IBM logo on it and was a model M (1995 UK).

Model Ms with part numbers 71xxxxxx are rubber domes. I do not know when or why they were made.
-
Yes I'm currently searching more informations but could not find any AZERTY 71G.... models, waiting for the pics I asked, If I could know which keyboard was sold with the IBM PC 330 computer it would be fine.
-
There were at least a half dozen keyboard options for the PC330. Some were rubber dome, some were buckling spring (including the M13). As far as I know, the rubber dome options didn't look like the classic M. Here's the base options with part numbers:
KB705 TRACKPOINT II KB PS 13H6705
104-KEY RUBBER-DOME KEYBOARD 41H9724
104-KEY RUBBER DOME KEYBRD BLACK 76H0109
ENHANCED KEYBOARD PS 92G7453
KB454 ENHANCED KEYBOARD PS/AT 92G7454
KB461 ENH KEYBOARD W/T PTII 92G7461
The last three are buckling spring and are the classic M case. Do you have a part number?
-
thx very much for so rich infos :)
I'm waiting for the pic of the sticker, won't send any money untill I'm sure it's a BS model... will let you know, for fun^^
-
If your informations are reliable, it's not a rubber dome as the first 3 keyboards won't look like the one on the pic :
1st one has a trackpoint
2nd one has windows keys
3rd one is black
-
Yessss, got it^^ for 10 euro but it's like new omg
Congratulations! :)
Hopefully it is BS.
-
Yes I'm currently searching more informations but could not find any AZERTY 71G.... models,
This has a surprisingly good list, near the bottom.

Thx but I allready know it, that's why I'm asking the seller a sticker pic, although I'm pretty sure it's a model M...
I'm not rich and can't waste 20 euro (10 + shipping fees).
-

I'm pretty sure it is, my dead model M knew I was missing it :)
But it's gonna be jaleous as I'm really in love with my current Black lubed ALPS Bull 1988 keyboard, if you could feel these keys... omg, feels like a virgin skin LOL

As far as rubber domes go, it's a top notch board.
So you didn't buy it?
-
No I don't think I will, 20 euro with shipping, but my budget is too tight even if it's a good ruber dome... sad.
-
That's a shame. With the original photo, you might have gotten lucky.
MOst unfortunate.
