Model M Space Saver
« on: Sun, 21 August 2011, 11:34:40 »
E-Bay hasn't been very nice lately.  :-(

I know I haven't been on the site for a while; other projects and so forth.  (Finally completed the restoration of an all original IBM5150 system)  But I have been lurking.  

I'm looking for a good Model M Space Saver to properly fit my new desk's keyboard drawer.  I would prefer one that's already been bolt modded with PS2 connector, but will accept one without the bolt mod, and since the cables are easily swappable, well...  

So, does anyone have one they can point me to?

I just sold one earlier this week on eBay after fruitlessly posting it here! Revenge was selling a couple on here though. He might still have them.

Wyse buy colors were GSY for the dark grey, GBA for the light grey, and BBI for the fonts.

It appears that geekhack is not the place to sell keyboards anymore unless you've got something really exotic.

The problem is, someone who is here would have to be after something and happen to see it (and be willing to deal directly and not think that ebay is safer or something). Almost all threads I see where things don't sell it seems like everyone expects them to go within hours of posting it.

Thanks for the referrals guys, but my sales have been slowing down, getting quite busy with school stuff and exam preparation.
