Wow, that is a great find!
Someone better snap it up at the BIN price, before a bidding war starts.

Yeah it is. The last couple I've seen sold were $1500+. $750 is a fantastic price, so hopefully no one bids in the hope to save $200 because they won't. More than I could afford, but a great price for a Datahand.

Oh god, if only I had the money. One day...

How much did the last datahand go for again?

That's one of the problems with turning off the post warning features.....

Maybe if he could confirm that it works.

I'd buy it and flip it, if not for the fear of being drawn and quartered....... ;)

There is one sold for $900 in December iirc.

Well, there's a bid on it now, so probably won't be going for $750 anymore...

FFS this ^
It was definitely going to go higher than 750. Why didnt they just pay the BIN price. Some people have no concept of how auctions work.

Mainly this, but you never know. People used to think that M15s were worth $1500, for something esoteric like the DH it really depends on who is looking at the time.

How does it work? Oo

We'll see how lucky I am when i try to power it on to see if it works!

Seems to work well. It's going to take months of practice like others have mentioned.

And that is why the standard QWERTY keyboard (or your regional variant) will never be supplanted.
