It's amazing what some sellers will list as being in 'very good condition'.

Yuck.

I have picked up a couple of these in the past couple of years in 2nd hand stores (always the original ones with arrows in inverted "T" not the "+") in truly nice condition and gotten about $15 + shipping on ebay. But they never sold right away, I think that there is a small but limited market for them. There is an identical Dell-branded version.

I bought one myself, back in the late-1990s, but never could get used to it.

“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48

Probably for the same reason I didn't post it here originally.
