Came across this on ebay and was wondering what model of keyboard it may be.

This the only picture they had of the keyboard:

If I remember right, it's a Chicony.  A couple of people here have one (zwmalone, and bhtooefr, IIRC).  It has white (complicated, I think) ALPS switches.  It's ugly, but it's a pretty nice keyboard.

$10 AUD for a complicated White Alps board? Not bad at all!

Hi, wanted to say hello to everyone and thanks to Hanjin for posting this ebay find. I received the keyboard today and so far I like it.

It is clicky! I wanted to see what year it was manufactured but could not find it anywhere.

BTW it is down to AUD $5 now!

Here some photos:

I spot Fakes!

Then again, for $5, you can't go wrong. And it would make a great mod board for those inclined.

Mine was White Complicated.  A fair bit more use than the NIB whites in my northgate, but I nice crisp feel none the less.  Wheels (is he still around?) Had 2 of these boards (I ended up selling mine to him for a total of 3), and they also had complicated whites...
