[eBay] IBM SSK '93
« on: Sun, 20 October 2013, 12:39:16 »
Bidding starts at $99
"Buy It Now" for $400

It will probably jump up to a $300 before it's last half-hour.

Good luck guys...

nice that it comes with its original box.

But will get expensive very fast, if nobody pays the bin price directly.

You guys blew it by not taking the BIN.

With original box this will probably go where the other recent ones have gone.

Glad I am not in the market for these!

This is why we can't have nice things.  :p This is going to go for well over $400 unless some miracle happens.

They do have it listed as used instead of new. It will still go over $400 I bet.
SSKs for everyone!

It wasn't me this time, but I sometimes enter a bid to make the low BIN price go away, just for fun.

So how much of these recent SSK listings do you think are Geekhackers trolling by driving up the price?

That really isn't funny.

But maybe it will train people to understand that they have to strike while the iron is hot.
