I just don't think that these are worth that much. IMO.

Trackpoint = +$100? Unicomp was selling industrial versions of these just a few years ago for $70ish? I suppose in the end this is still around retail...

Unicomp was selling them, but they're not any more.  The appeal is partly the colour - the trackpoint isn't that great, IMHO, on high-res displays.

These? If these are it, looks like you can still buy them.

Those are similar but not the same, it's a different bit of hardware for the trackpoint and many find it inferior to the real deal.

But I believe the made-in-Mexico M13s also use an inferior trackpoint?  Only the M13s made by Lexmark have the proper device, and those aren't available in black.

Picked up the last one.  I offered $100 for it and he countered for $120 + shipping.  So I ended up paying $136 and some change, but definitely a little higher than I wanted to pay.

He said he's putting up 4 used ones for $100/each soon.

Thanks for the heads-up!
