I seen this one when it first listed. I would eventually like to add one of these to my ergo collection. I don't necessarily think I need a NIB example though. Can anyone comment on whether this is a good deal? I see one seller on eBay is asking $1400 for theirs!
barnaywang has had that 5000 up for months and even though it's ANSI I doubt he will get the $1400 he is asking for it, unless someone with even deeper pockets than our OP shows up
, not even the fabled "4 x G80-5000 auction" got $1400/board IIRC (they got more supposedly because of boxes and manuals, and one was a Russian version)
Whether this is a good deal? I don't know. Probably not. If you don't care about the Italian layout most ISO ones go for less, I think there was a NIB HAMDE that went for $500 or so, a used Norwegian one for about $400 (and NO is rare). So most likely you could find a HAADE or HAMPO for less.
A cherry keyboard is never ever worth anywhere near that amount. I know it's exceptionally rare, but still.
I will agree to disagree with you on that statement
