I've finally decided to pick up a Cherry MX Blue board, so it's time to let go of my Model M. This is a model 52G9658 which was manufactured by Lexmark. It has a blue IBM label, double piece keycaps, and a built-in coiled PS/2 cable. I picked this up a couple years ago on ebay when I was first exploring the world of mechanical keyboards, but I've only used it for a few hours at most.
This was a used board, but you wouldn't know it by looking at it. I did a little cleaning, but it was in remarkably good condition to begin with; no broken rivets, all keys work and feel perfect, no squeaks, LEDs work, and so on.
This is a very clean board; there only a couple minor cosmetic blemishes. The only one of note is on the right shift key as shown in the images; the rest are all on the underside of the board. Honestly, I would keep this since it's in such good shape, but it would be a shame for it to sit in my closet, deprived of the caress of someone's loving fingertips.
EDIT: Looking for around $40 SHIPPED in US. Make an offer if you're interested!
Say hi!
