Both ridiculously overpriced...

I did reach out to the seller for the 1.2k one. I made a good offer and was declined but supposedly "I will be notified before it gets sent out and that he will research this keyboard more"...hope they enjoy letting it sit on the bay...the 1.4k one has been there for a long long time.

Did someone actually pay 1.2k for that 5000?

I remember someone paid more than for 3 mx5000 nib - that's more each.  Few years back now, but I'm pretty sure the total was over $8k. 

Unless I'm wrong...

[edit]
Here's another expensive one...
