Like title says, looks like a nice and clean IBM model F. Low amount of dust and smudge.

Starting at 9.99$ no BO tho. Worth keeping track of it for you guys since it's shipped to the US only.

Enjoy!

Already at $102.50 with over a day and a half left, which means it'll go for more than any I've seen sell for in recent history (the past 6 months). My guess is that the absence of many sales recently has increased the demand once this auction came up. Though perhaps ATs are coming back into vogue.

To me it looks like a 'special friend' based on the bid history, they bumped it up to $90 in a period of only 10 minutes.

Nah, I bid on this. But probably the other guy was shill bidding, that's why he hasn't gone over my max yet.

Why put such a high max bid in to start with? Surely you are just asking to pay for it. If shill bidders don't increase the price someone else will...

19 people watching this item currently... I predict 157.01

Higher!!!

Vintage IBM prices are getting silly at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me.

Glad I'm not fighting for it. And no I have no part in the shill bidding, heck I can't even get it shipped here

Haha, yeah, I did it on purpose. I'm having a great time so far on GH. I'm trying to assimilate the knowledge while jesting on the side.

You'll fit right in here then.

It finished $102.50.. Did anyone from geekhack win?

Nice, I hope it's as clean as it looks.

Gratz! I hope it works well. I'm glad my post was actually useful for a change and not just questionable comments haha!
