1989 Model M 1391401, $40 + shipping (probably)

[ander]

Hey guys,

Yesterday an eBay seller listed a black-label Model M 1391401 with a BIN price of $69.99 and the "Make an offer" option. A friend of mine in Vancouver offered $40 and the seller accepted it.

This same seller has listed another 1391401 with the same terms. I can't guarantee it of course, but I'm guessing they'll take $40 for this one too. It's a 1989 (black label) with cable. It's missing some keycaps (left bracket, PrtScr, Scroll Lock, numpad 6 and 3) but otherwise looks very nice. I'd buy it myself if I thought I could stay married.

Oh just buy it please.  I certainly don't need another one.  *WEG*  It's missing the period/delete and the 3 on the numpad BTW.  Be sure you order or have the right replacement keys.

Edit: It is also missing the Tilde ~/` key to the left of the 1 key (above the Tab)  Looks like someone wrote on the stem.
Yep 6 keys.  Print Screen - Scroll Lock - Tilde ~/` - Left Bracket - Numpad 3 - Numpad Period/Delete.

Right you are! Thanks for checking up after me... I'm usually trying to do 3 things at once here.  :?P

I guess the keyboard sold.  Did anyone here get it?  Did you buy it ander?

Would I post about it here, then go buy it myself? I may be a KB maniac, but I have principles.  :?|

Looks like whoever bought it didn't bother to haggle.

Yeah they paid full price despite it missing 6 keycaps.  I guess they had some spares somewhere.
Besides, you want to stay married for now.

Well, that said, there are definitely times when I'd opt for the bigger KB collection.

GH has a way of making you think, just one more....  Yeah.

Besides, single guys especially need lots of KBs, as they're such babe magnets.
