Title: Hebrew Model M $220 BIN
Post by: nubbinator on Fri, 14 March 2014, 23:50:56: Seems ridiculously expensive to me for a Model M, but might be worth it to someone. You can also bid on it, but with how the bidding is now, you're probably better off doing the BIN price.

NO, it's a good deal because he never raised the price :p

Yeah, I'd rather have this Greek one, to be honest:

That's pretty easy to fix once it's been bolt modded
