I've been idly searching for clicky IBM keyboards since my botched efforts to buy one for myself.  I bid on one NIB Unicomp Model M; sniped in the last seconds.  Bid on another; same story.  Got tired of the aggro, and bid a nominal amount on three other auctions.  (I'll bet you can see where this one is going...)

Won them all.   

Anyone need a new-model 122-key Unicomp?  Or a UB40 (love the reference!) Ultra Classic 101-key with Windows key?  Both in black, both PS2 connectors.  I'm not really sure I want to sell them, they do grow on you, that buckling spring feel is amazing.  But do I really need so many keyboards?  (No answer needed...)   :p

Why does anybody bid before the last 10 seconds?

I can assure you that it wasn't me who sniped those Unicomps (I will only buy original IBM).

Also remember to do transactions with sellers outside of ebay as much as possible. That way you get their best **** cheaper and faster before it's even listed.
