Model F APL Unsaver on eBay. $984 (!)
« on: Tue, 13 December 2016, 05:29:56 »
I honestly don't know what the going rate for an Unsaver is, but this is the first one I've seen on eBay in a while.  This is the same seller who has the Beamspring for sale in an earlier post.

That said, I wouldn't consider this a deal at $984, but it is an interesting listing due to the rarity of the board:

They look like Unicomp APL caps. Doesn't say APL on the backspace key which unicomp sets don't have. Also leaves out a picture of the bottom which would have the part number of the board which would tell you if it originally had APL caps or not. Interestingly also missing the screw between the connectors in the back :/
