Title: Model M 1390401 (1989), missing 1 key & a few caps, $39.99 shipped

IBM 1391401 PS2 Wired Keyboard Working Free Shipping! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-1391401-PS2-Wired-Keyboard-Working-Free-Shipping-/391285605306?hash=item5b1a7083ba)  (eBay)

2nd-gen (gray logo), otherwise in pretty nice shape. It's the cheapest I've seen lately for a Model M that's not seriously messed up. Hope nobody buys it before I can post this...

Somebody already bought it, lol.

But it looked to be a bit of a frankenstein as some of the key stems where different colors.  Project board for someone that went wrong?

Good deal!

Stems were often random light/dark in my experience.

Interesting.  I'll have to check that when I give all my Ms a good cleaning.
