XT - 83 keys, ~$50
AT - 84 keys, usually modded to ANSI and adding Alt keys by replacing the long space bar with a 7x one; ~$100
F122 - most common Model F, ~$80
[4704] F50 ~$100; F62 ~$200; F77 ~$300; F107 ~$200
These prices seem pretty optimistic to me, from what I’ve seen on ebay over the past year or so; more realistically these are about the best prices you can expect with a fair amount of hunting around ebay (with a
lot more hunting, you might find cheaper).
- The XTs can occasionally be found for $50 + shipping, or very rarely for cheaper, but they often sell at $80+.
- AT prices are all over the map; sometimes they’re lower than F122 prices, sometimes higher. I’ve seen them anywhere from $60 to $200+. In the past 4 months the range has been like $130–300, with a couple of mistitled ones going for cheaper.
- It’s quite rare for F122s to be found for <$100, and I’ve seen several go for more like $200.
Personally I’d suggest $50 as a fair price for an XT, and $100 as a pretty good price for either an F122 or an AT, but all of those are lower than the average prices these go for: a "buy it now" listing on ebay will typically sell within a couple weeks at $75 for an XT or at $150 for an AT or F122. [The price seems a bit silly to me for XTs, considering they use a wacky layout and need a converter to work on modern machines, but it is what it is.]

The 4704 boards were incredibly rare until quite recently: a few people had the 62-key and 50-key versions, but the other two types were all stuck on bank warehouse shelves. A bunch showed up in the last few months, but now that the briefly available stock has sold out, it’s difficult to find new ones at any price. If you want to buy one from someone in this community who already has one, I think it’ll definitely take more than $200 for the 62/107-key versions and more than $300 for the 77-key. A 77-key 4704 board would definitely fetch >$300 on ebay if it went up right now. I’m not sure about the other: probably would depend on how widely publicized the auction was.
Not too many people in the wider world even know these bank terminal boards exist, so there isn’t
all that much demand, but a bunch of folks around the geekhack/deskthority community still really want one and have plenty of cash to drop. I’m really sure quite what the market price is, or what it will be in 6 months.
I’m sure there are still many stuck in various banks, but it’s non-trivial to find them.
