Life is easier when people are careful and don't make mistakes.

I'm still waiting on the AT F I bought a few weeks ago since they sent something else the first time I'm not risking another one as tempting as it may be.

PS: DON'T buy this based on the pic I messaged the seller be put the wrong pic up.  :-\

If any of you fell for this scam, be advised the actual keyboard you are about to get is a 122-key Model M made by Lexmark in 1994.

So I was the one that bought it, I messaged the seller asking for more pictures and asked that he would confirm that it was the item in the photo and not a model M as listed. He replied, "its the model M i had issue with the listing i couldn't remove it it automatically select the listing one here are mine, please let me know if you are satisfied." He had 2 pics of a M 122 key attached. I asked to cancel and he said no problem. Auction has been cancelled and paypal money has been refunded. Crisis averted.

Sorry, guys.

I try to be helpful but this weird crap is making me think that I should just sit on my hands.

This thread has helped me get quite a bit of good gear, over the years, so I do still think that it is valuable.
