Sure it will go a lot higher but thought that I would share the find.

In 9 days, I'm going to estimate it'll hit $470.
Still a great find though.

EDIT: 270, I thought it was the S.

fossala · « **Reply #2 on:** Mon, 05 March 2012, 01:24:00 »

Why would it hit $470? They are only $300 new from EK.

I thought that was weird him saying that. I may list everything declaring that I am a Chef.

Roguemaster8 · « **Reply #5 on:** Mon, 05 March 2012, 01:47:43 »

Oops, I thought I saw an S somewhere in there. Edited my terrible prediction.

I would be more impressed if he was Japanese

Type-s isn't avaliable in black.

A doctor of computer science.

I bet he uses Gentoo.

EDIT: And I'm still learning the ins and outs of HHKBs. Topre switches have been in my thoughts lately.

fossala · « **Reply #9 on:** Mon, 05 March 2012, 01:55:35 »

I was only helping you further you knowlage. Gentoo isn't bad just is hell when you don't update it for 2 months then try to.

I am Ph. D. student in computer science.

Great, so he's bashed a thesis into it!

lololololol... This advert made me laugh so hard.

PhD students will tell absolutely everyone that they are a PhD student given the opportunity to do so...

P.s., I'm a PhD student too.

Is it me or does it look dirty? Anyway bumped up the bid.

fossala · « **Reply #13 on:** Wed, 07 March 2012, 11:16:57 »

If it goes much higher you would be better of buying a new one.

I only planned to buy it if the auction was below $150.

Haha, might of been possible if it wasn't posted here on GH but this thread basically meant the death of the auction for us.

Looks like its heading into the $250 range which isn't much of a deal anymore.

... BUT OWNED BY A PH.D student

Nope, but while everyone was focused on this one I was able to snag a white printed HHKB for $212.50 shipped! :laser:

$44 is a pretty slim margin between a new and used model. The guy didn't provide any sort of description of his usage, so there's no way to gauge wear and tear anyway.

Good luck to whoever got it.

You sly dog. Good job! If I ever got one it would be a white printed one.

Haha I know I was expecting someone to make a thread about it the whole time, or to be bid up really high but neither thing happened lol. The craziest part is the guy said it was a gift and he never used it.
