Thanks for sharing.  I'm sure I'll be outbid soon.  And I'm not going to say it's not worth the price, but it's certainly not "new."  You can see dust and skin flakes on the keys.  Not that dust is ever going to hurt a Realforce.  The last one of these I picked up smelled like a wet ashtray.  Good thing for buyer protection :)

Funny, that could mean two entirely different things:

• "Thanks for letting me know! I bid, but I probably won't get it."

• "Thanks for nothing—now everybody knows about it!"

But isn't dust largely skin flakes anyway?

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

Well, where can you even purchase one besides eBay?  I’m planning to bid again before it closes.
