Is this old DATATECH SPK-100 Keyboard worth anything?

I found this old keyboard in my garage, which I threw up on eBay. There is literally nothing on the internet when searching for "SPK-100 keyboard", but it seems to be a Model M variant so I'm hoping that it's worth something.

Blue Alps switches are one of the most popular Alps variants, very nice to type on and aren't seen too often, and the keyboard seems in good shape. On the other hand, Alps are not IBM buckling springs, and their prices tend to stay moderate. Smart move to advertise it here and on GH.

Thanks, I literally just searched for mechanical keyboard enthusiast forums. I'm not an MK owner myself since the clicking would annoy others in the house but I've always respected them.

I don't know if advertising is allowed; feel free to delete this post if it is.

There's 6 days left on it if you want to bid on it.

Just a tip: add some more keywords in your title, like 'clicky', 'mechanical', and 'vintage' to attract relevant attention.

Of course, for something relatively unique like this board, you might get more money if you sell it in the marketplace on this or another keyboard related forum. That will also save you the extra eBay fees - surplus you can split with your buyer.

Unfortunately, you can't change the title after someone has already bid on it.
