I don't think this is a good price. I've seen M-122's on ebay going in the $40 range for quite a while now.Here's a few that are the price plus shipping:$28 BIN (square badge): http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-Model-M-Mechanical-Keyboard-1394100-1997-/141863285332$50 obo: http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-1394100-CLICKY-KEYBOARD-WITH-RJ-45-TERMINAL-MONITOR-STYLE-PLUG-1992-/191631946325$40 obo: http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-1394100-CLICKY-KEYBOARD-WITH-RJ-45-TERMINAL-MONITOR-STYLE-PLUG-1995-/151746462644$50 obo: http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-1394100-1394801-CLICKY-KEYBOARD-07-01-/381260349628If you look at the sold listings, recently a bunch went for under $25 and a few at $30 with free shipping: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=1394100&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684

I think people have figured out that the 5 pin terminal plug is just a converter cable away from being used and the pricing has reacted accordingly with a +$20-30 markup from the rj45 model.

Where are you getting this information? Are you making this up? The 5-pin Terminal Model M 122's are not PC/AT compatible. The pinouts are even different! You need a Soarer's converter to get them to work, and the adapter that Orihalcon sells is $40.Edit: It's the same thing for the RJ-45 jacked Terminal 122 Model M keyboards too.Orihalcon has the RJ-45 version Soarer converter for $40.Another Edit!https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=64670.msg1513985#msg1513985LOOK there.
