IBM AT F keyboard 125 BIN + shipping (make an offer)

Seeing some of the more recent sales, even at full asking price this is about $150.00. 

I'm not getting it so I figured I'd post it.

Sorry if someone was watching this.

Looks nice—with the original black AT cable, too.

It was made in the UK, does that matter? Probably not with F's...

Cables on Model Fs are not detachable.
"However, my view has changed in recent days. Trump’s behavior is so bizarre, so unhinged, and so counter to his short-term interests that the most likely explanation for his actions is that Trump either believes or knows that he is mentioned in the Epstein files in ways that are even more damaging than the blowback he is getting for not releasing the files."

Yes they are, open the keyboard and unplug it! Pretty sure you did it a few times!  :p :p :p

So does its being made in the UK affect its value at all? Model M's from the UK (Scotland) aren't as desirable, but they're all from the M's last (newest) period, and apparently aren't quite as well made as other M's. Those kinds of things probably don't apply here.
