Hi,
while browsing ebay for some keyboards, I discovered this: http://www.ebay.de/itm/COMPAQ-Computer-Tastatur-PS2-inkl-Trackball-Kugel-Maus-/300679114736
While this probably should not be too unusual, a similar keyboard was sold for quite a low price (see link). In this previous auction the seller also stated that he could deliver more of the keyboards upon request. So this could be an opportunity for anyone of you who is interested in these boards.
[eBay.de] Compaq MX 11800
please, no one bid and someone do a group buy for 5 € a piece
if this ends at 20€+ that would be unlikely

To boldly go where no innovator has gone before : always engage at full trust.
I would definitely take one at 5 euros also.

Max price for me : 15 euros as well, eventually 20 if it is in really good shape.

For 5 € or not much more I would be in, as well. I always wanted to test a trackball and MX browns.

Well, I never even bid on anything on ebay, so I guess I'm out (at least with regard to contacting the seller).

It's probably better than a lot of the things you stumble upon on the internet or in German schools these days.
EDIT: Did someone from here bid on it?
EDIT²: Wrong quote.

Since I brought that up here I also could contact the seller. But I am really new to the whole group buying matter and this forum in general so I would not mind if one of the more experienced users would take over

Do you also intend to do the group buy? And are you the one who bid on it on ebay?

No, I did not bid on the keyboard. I just wrote the seller to find out how many keyboards he has to offer, but I did not get a reply yet.

Ok, I just got a reply from the seller: He says that he has about 20 of the keyboards lying around. Price varies on the amount of keyboards sold as a bundle (no specific values so far).
So how do the next steps look like? Is anyone interested in organizing a group buy?

mintberryminuscrunch, that would be great if you organized a group buy for these, as nobody else seems to volunteer. Even if it takes some time, it's better than not getting them at all!
