Here at this seller's store on ebay:

From the pictures all the boards seem pretty clean, and all cost around 25$ + 10$ shipping. Good for those who want their first buckling spring (or for those who painted black theirs, and want a new one = me).

I've got stuff from him before, so have other people, good seller.

What's the deal with tinyurl'ing things anyway? Those kind of links always make me suspicious...

Tinyurl, a URL shortner:

I use it a lot (and many, many others) to micro-blog on twitter.com

There another shortner: http://bit.ly

I know what they are, but I was asking what was the point in doing it in the first place. When you post a URL, it automatically becomes a link. There's no advantage to shortening the links, and it just wastes your time doing it.

Unless it's some sort of corporate technote url that is 200+ characters long, I don't bother shortening the url. Besides, link rot is already enough of a problem, just wait until the shortening services start to die off!

I see a lot of his listings, but never bid - the shipping charge is $23 for me.

A well known and well respected seller of Buckling Spring and other good keyboards. Prices are fair rather than a bargain though.

I like his carpet. This time last year it was green. I wonder if similar colour hacks were applied...
