Someone posted this a couple of days ago...can't believe it's that high. That's a NIB price.
SSKs for everyone!

People buy them because they think that they are rare and people likes to buy rare stuff. I like those boards in a box only.

I predict that he will get his price, but not from me, of course. I don't even care about SSKs.

Very early date, presumably with heavy plate, unusual and desirable key caps, orihalcon cable, shipping included.

People pay 2/3 of this price, shipped, for clunkers.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

The condition of the board is actually extremely good considering the year it was made, seems like the bids are constantly increasing

Wow, that is way to much considering it's not NIB! $320  :eek:

I have one that is the same year and in new condition that I bought for $170 just a couple of months ago. Add the cable and it's worth $200 tops.

Hmm, wonder how much my NIB SSK will bring...
SSKs for everyone!
