Just wondering if anyone knows if that keyboard is any good?

If you live in AZ you can try my keyboards. I usually keep plenty of different ALPS and MX and buckling springs.

Do you have access to the computer/keyboard?

If yes, take a shot of the label under the keyboard.
With the 3 keys each sides of the spacebar, I wonder if this is the keyboard that came with the computer.

From a quick search for JDR,  I suspect they were assembling early IBM clones. Those guys were typically selling at a fairly low margin and the keyboards were the cheapest they can get.
I'd be glad to be wrong... Plz provide more details.

It would be kind of a far drive from where I live and I tried emailing him but the link doesn't work.
I don't want to go all the way there for nothing. If the company was known for making cheap stuff and it has win keys it probably wouldn't be worth it.
The drive there and back would probably cost me a good $15 or $20 and he wants $10 for it. Would still be nice to know what it is though.
