Spot IBM twists spring axis mechanical keyboard MODEL M Series PS2 Interface (https://world.taobao.com/item/45772203657.htm?scm=1007.12679.20634.45772203657)
I'm fairly new to mechanical keyboards, and i don't really know much about model m's, if someone has some more info on this please let me know :p
It's listed for ¥ 178.00 (for reference about 27 USD) and comments seem positive (?)

Welcome to Geekhack!
Not a bad price for a Model M, but then you've got postage on top of that, and these are heavy.
Also I can never get the other pictures to appear on Taobao. If I click the big image I get a blank page in a new tab. If I click the little images nothing happens.

Thanks for the welcome rowdy :D
Looks like you weren't kidding about the weight - the price might end up doubling with int. shipping :o
PS. Try opening in a new tab from the thumbnails down the bottom? The photos aren't great anyway - I couldn't read the label :p

Looks like a standard 1391401 to me. It's not a bad price, but many shipping services suddenly become extremely expensive over 2 kg, which is the weight of a Model M without any packaging so it's impossible to keep it under that.
