So I ended up getting this one and upon picking it up locally as they are literally just down the street from me. It turns out they have a decent sized crate with approx. 20+ of them for quite some time and they ended up putting it by the wayside as they didn't know about the griffin imate to test them with.
Their supervisor wasn't there when I went to pick mine up but from the looks of it and what the employees were expressing, there's a good chance I can start a groupbuy due to my close proximity to them. Probably for a better price too considering they've been around for awhile and there's no need to trans-ship or taxes as they accept $cash$ in person.
If you're interested let me know via PM, otherwise you'll find them on ebay as they're planning to do soon*.They all appear pretty clean with only some yellowing of the case and spacebar for reasons mentioned above. Otherwise, the keycaps are in great condition. Switches are *not* gritty.
Yes these are ex-school district. Newark Unified School District to be exact. But they are by no means abused or used to the ground. The one I bought worked perfectly as is. I could test them all given I have time.
They are engraved on the back with school district information and inventory and some have been written with sharpie on the back as well with school district asset related information.
There are a few cables but most are without cables. But it's common knowledge that you can use a s-video cables in place of ADB cables.
It didn't occur to me in the excitement of one of the employee's showing me the trove of them to take a picture of them until the last minute but they're in the container on the ground:
The one I got:
They are *all* in this condition. None of them are missing caps.
