PRICES UPDATED!
Up for sale are 7 IBM Model M keyboards with USB conversion cables. The first three with SDL connectors include YOUR CHOICE of a Beige or Black SDL to USB cable. I normally sell the cables alone on ebay for around $37.50 each. If you want to see what the SDL to USB cables look like closer up, search ebay for "SDL to USB Cable." The keys and bottom plate could use a good cleaning (which can be done fairly easily with Q-Tips or small brushes and soap once the keys have been taken off for cleaning). I have also bolt modded all missing rivets on these three.
The 4 Terminal 122 key keyboards are FULLY TESTED, but I have not cleaned them at all. You should expect them to be fairly dirty and missing some plastic rivets, but they should clean up nicely. These are intended to be restoration projects and I am including a new 7/32” nut driver so that you can open the board and install the included Pre-Flashed (no additional soldering required) Soarer’s Converter which will plug right into the controller board. I am also including a custom 6ft USB cable that exactly match the original cable retainer slot as pictured which will also make installation easy and professional looking from the outside.
Everything is guaranteed fully functioning and prices INCLUDE CONTINENTAL USA Shipping only. I cannot ship internationally as the risk of damage or loss is too high. If you buy more than one, I will do a further discount of $5 per keyboard bought. So, for example, if you buy 2 keyboards, you’d get an overall discount of $10. I will use Paypal to invoice you.

Probably is easiest to cycle through the pictures from photo bucket using the arrows on either side of the above picture.
Keyboard #1 - IBM Black Label - Has a part of the escape key plastic barrel chipped off. Still holds the escape key on perfectly though - $85
Keyboard #2 - IBM Black Label - Has some unique blue stickers as you can see from the pictures. If you don’t like them, you can scrape or peel them off with a plastic scraper (I usually use the bottom part of a plastic 20oz cola bottle cap for removing stickers for sticker removal and Isopropyl alcohol to clean off the sticker residue) - $90

How nice!
So good of you to offer "packaged sets" like these.
Those of us who have done these kinds of rehabs know that it can be fussy and tedious to get all the right pieces, parts, and tools, and get them working together properly.
And your prices are very reasonable, considering.
Buy up, folks!
