Apple AEK II (M3501) $25 shipped

This is a bit yellowed, and it’s hard to tell what kind of condition the switches are in, but it's easily worth that much for just the keycaps.

Also, this auction has an AEK II, an Apple Standard Keyboard (M0116, probably orange Alps), and two rubber domes (I think one of them is the type with with Alps-compatible keycaps and the other isn’t, but I’m not totally sure). http://www.ebay.com/itm/131342035326

AEK IIs on auction right now for cheap:


My experience has been that they are hard to sell for more than the high-$20-low-$30 range even when clean and tested, unless they are not yellowed, in which case they might go for $40 shipped.

But I have not sold any since last spring.

Speaking of which, here are two that have very little yellowing for $34 shipped each:

Those look very nice.

The mice are junk, but anybody who seriously wants to try an AEK2 should pounce on one of these.
