Ambitious pricing.  They couldn't get those things out the door at 40-50 bucks new as I recall.

It's not NKRO, is it?  I seem to recall that was one of the big reasons it fell from grace.

Certain batches had some issues with keyroll over (it was marketed as 6KRO, not PS/2 compatible); though for pure typing I don't think anyone had any issues.  Yes, it's priced a bit high but someone might want it for their collection.

Title says "MX style" so I'm guessing the person selling just has no idea what he has.  The ABS M1 definitely has alps/alps-like switches.
