I thought this was NIB when I first saw it, but the seller says:

It's a bit dirty, and needs to be wiped down. Includes original box...

Still, it's not much more than used XTs are going for these days, and the box has some collector's value too, right?

I like having the boxes for my keyboards. I don't think I've ever seen a true NIB XT.

Including this one?
