I guarantee you that NIB one will go for far more than $40. I predict it'll go up to at least $100.

It is a `94 and therefore lexmark.

also: Gosh, it looks like they really cheaped out on the bottom sticker. The one on mine looks much higher quality.

The first link doesn't have a part number.  Are all grey label model Ms buckling spring?  The only rubber dome versions I have seen are blue label.


A better deal with 2 hours left:

There were just three NIB Model M's that sold for $30 each, BIN.  Ok, that was a bit unusual to see them go for that low, but $100 IMHO is too high.  The $60 to $85 range seems more realistic to me.  But of course if you get two or more people who really want it, the price can go well above the normal range.

I purchased a NIB Model M from clickykeyboards 100 USD, and their prices are normally on the upper end of the scale. But then again that was over a year ago.

Yes that's a model M. It's an older grey labeled one (meaning the PS/2 cable should be SDL detachable).

The NIB one is worth less to serious collectors.

The grey labeled ones will NEVER EVER be rubber domes. They were made way before the cheaper blue label ones (blue labels can have attached [non-coiled] cables, rubber domes, etc).

Oh, THERE'S Waldo.

But why did he piss all over the picture?

LOL! Did someone serious write WALDO on that box?
I never knew Waldo was interested in buckling springs.

Hey, I found Ripster:

Complete with Retrobrite equipment strapped on.

$40 for the used.  $51 for the NIB.

Well.  There goes the demand for the IBM Model M.

It all fluctuates. Probably most of the people interested in buying mechanical keyboards already have one (well moderate chaps). Model Ms last a very long time.

Thats the problem with making a product that damn well, it lasts a lifetime and they don't get any repeat customers. Hopefully mech keyboards make a comeback and the American/Japanese companies start producing again.
