Anyone want to contact the seller and see if we can do a group buy? I've been wanting a set of caps off one of these boards and if we buy enough I bet we could get the price down a lot.

These boards a German ISO layout, but they have the windowed caps/num/scroll lock keys which are nice.

Also, I think these may be the all white versions. Krankenversichertenkarte /kvk.

Anyone want to help with this since I'm not in Germany?

Doesn't really look all white but what do I know. I'd be in for one.

Last year I predicted that we would see a huge amount of these pop up soon. My prediction finally came true.

yeah, i didn't realize it at first since the pic is a stock photo. the 1501s came in two flavors. i could be wrong though...someone who can read german or pm the seller would be able to figure that out.

and that is due to the healthcare system changing their computers or something? Maybe it's better to wait it out and see if they get a lot cheaper?

I think that would be a good idea.
We got new chip cards for our healthcare system and the old cardreader don't work with them...

Well, that for sure explains why these would be obsolete.

I'd definitely be down for one.

Let the auction expire and see if we can get a lower price?

I'd probably take one, but wanna know how the condition on the keys is. Can still be "A" on ebay with every key being shiny..

In for one
