Snagged a nice Model M!
« on: Tue, 22 February 2011, 13:43:51 »
I was able to snag a Model M off ebay for 25 dollars shipped!  I purchased it not knowing the model number or condition. I had been watching this listing and missed out on throwing a bid at it.  I really didn't want the "CPU" as it has a blown HHD and power supply.  I figured it might be worth it just for the keyboard itself.  After the auction ended I noticed it went unsold.  A sent off a msg to the seller and offered 25 for the keyboard.  He bit.  I got the keyboard in 2 days and it is a mint '91 Model M 1391401,  The cord is perfect and the case and keys cleaned up like new.

I checked today and he had relisted the computer without the keyboard at the same price.

All's fair in love and eBay.
