Now that I'm restarting production of F62 Kishsavers / F77 keyboards for $350 each I don't think this Kishsaver auction will end up above $600 or so. It is an original so it's certainly worth a bit more than my reproductions though.
Have to say, really impressed with your work so far. Just wish I had the amount of time to commit to a project like this.

Stupid question maybe, but why "Kishsaver"? I get the saver bit, but why Kish?
I think someone called Kishy found them.

So instead of sniping an ebay auction people are going to snipe his inbox? :p

It was Kishy that first had informed the world about the existence of the 4704 keyboard line, including the F62. I think he even had one of his own for a long time. Much later, a user named Tinny(sp?) that found a bunch of the F62s, and sold them all to DT / GH users at like $85 each. Since that batch, I don't think anymore have been located.

Tinny is tinlong117's nickname.
The price he was selling them for BEFORE shipping from Hong Kong and before my proxy shipping fees was $84. Shipping from Hong Kong was $36.50. Shipping stateside from me to anyone in CONUS was $17.30. I was the NA proxy for that batch.

I think that's right. I remember the price being in the $140 range shipped US.
After some deliberation, I sent tinlong messages every 2 days or so, for a week or 2, with simple questions such as "are there any left?" and "how much are they?"
About twice, after several tries, he responded with meaningless gibberish messages that did not relate to my questions, so I dropped the whole affair.
