ALL ITEMS WITHDRAWN FROM SALE

ALL ITEMS WITHDRAWN FROM SALE

I have for sale a Cherry MY1800 keyboard.

I believe it was made in 2005 (guessing from the info on the back) but has most definitely never used as the din plug has no sign of being plugged in and the thick (approx 2.8mm but havent had the micrometer on them) double shot keycaps have no smoothing/polishing to the tops! It seems for all intents and purpose as if it had just been bought today and taken out of the box, however as to why there is no box is beyond me!

This keyboard hasn't been cleaned or tarted up in any way, shape or form and is exactly how i came across it!
As the pictures show, there is no damage, scratches or yellowing from exposure to sunlight at all.
There is also an 'AT/PC' slide switch on the rear... Not sure if this is a common feature but judging from where I came across it I would presume this was to accompany a piece of machinery (cnc or industrial control panel of some sorts) rather than a computer!

Is anyone interested in this keyboard complete?
I am looking for around £30 + Postage
I will package it well and post by RM Tracked (postage cost tbc)

If no one is bothered i will probably end up just stripping it down for the switches and caps!

Thanks for looking and hope that it is of interest to someone!

ALL ITEMS WITHDRAWN FROM SALE

So here are the last remaining parts of the MY1800 Keyboard, the plate with switches and the control board (although not shown, also includes the 4 stab bars).

I will happily supply this with a PS/2 cable at no extra cost. This would make a nice easy project just needing a custom case and PS/2 lead fitting to give a retro board a modern twist!

If you didn't want PS/2 you would be able to retro fit a teensy controller to the plate... If anyone wanted to do this i would be happy to de-solder the pcb headers on request!
If no one is interested this will go in my projects pile, but may take a while to get done as building my new house is at the top of the list for the immediate future! lol

(MX keycaps fit nice and snug and actuate fully with no problems)
Other than my fingerprints on the rear of the plate you can now see just how pristine this keyboard was!
