[SOLD] Pristine IBM Model F-122 (too pricey, but pretty)
« on: Sat, 08 September 2018, 02:43:12 »
IBM Vintage 1985 Mechanical Clicky 122-Key Model F Terminal Keyboard 6110347























At a BIN of $499.99, few of us would consider actually buying this. (Indeed, the price might qualify it for the "Not-So-Great Finds" section.) But it sure is pretty, isn't it? I just wanted you to get a look at it. – A.

That price seems high to some of us, but not really outlandish considering what ancient IBM iron has been fetching lately.
"However, my view has changed in recent days. Trump’s behavior is so bizarre, so unhinged, and so counter to his short-term interests that the most likely explanation for his actions is that Trump either believes or knows that he is mentioned in the Epstein files in ways that are even more damaging than the blowback he is getting for not releasing the files."

Someone bought it!

It must be nice to be able to snap up an unused F-122 to put your greedy little fingers all over.  :?D
