/*UPDATE 8/30
Sorry again for the chaos, learning as I go! I've added prices for some items, and for others I notated that offers are accepted. I am wrapping up the responses to everyone who has messaged me and update the product statuses as we go. Once payment is received for any item, I almost always ship next day. Thanks again!
UPDATE 8/30*/

A little background on this find:
I made a few purchases from someone on eBay, and after I received some keyboards with broken keycaps we ended up talking. It turns out his uncle passed away but was a vintage computer collector (among many other cool things!). He also started a school in PA, and his family is selling his items to raise funds for the school. Very cool! After our discussion, I offered to sell the items since I'm more familiar with the market (and as a perfect excuse to check out all these awesome keyboards!), but I had no idea that the haul would be this great!

When I originally posted this, IMGUR randomly sorted the items so I apologize for the confusion and chaos. I've also received a lot of messages, so if you haven't received a response it's only because I've been busy sorting everything and keeping track of what people are interested in. I'm also trying to figure out pricing on some of these items, so if you'd like to send me an offer on an item it may be faster/easier for everyone. Just be a little patient with me if you could (my house is a mini warehouse at the moment, it's crazy).If you have any questions, please feel free to send them my way as well - I will reply to everyone as quickly as I can!

I will not be including pictures of most of the IBM & Apple keyboards. If you have any interest, please let me know what you're looking for. I have IBM Model M, F (XT & AT) and SSK's. :) I also have some vintage PC's/Monitors/Mice/random parts which I will post at a later date on some other forums, but please feel free to inquire if you are looking for a specific item.

I am attaching some new pictures with better sorting, but IMGUR is limiting the number of pictures I can upload so it may take a couple attempts. As of 8/24, I have a total of 47 keyboards I will be posting, so if there are less than that you can expect more. :)

It's after 5AM and I didn't just wake up, so please excuse me for keeping this brief. I'll provide more details, pictures and some background later, but I wanted to throw up some pics. If anyone is interested in a particular keyboard or would like more details/pictures, just let me know!

Quick note, IMGUR was not cooperating so if everything is out of order I'm really sorry! I still wanted to get these up, and I'm going to bed regardless. Enjoy! More to come

wow somereally awesome stuff in there!

Just two things i noticed. It would REALLY help if you sorted that imgur album to have pictures of the same keyboard next to each other and then putting stickers or postits with identifiers on each keyboard so people can ask for "#05"

ideally start with an ID pic of a keyboard followed by detail pics

Where did you find these? It looks like a recycling facility to me. What part of the US are you in?

GLWS. The stuff you're selling is already represented in my collection, but many other DT users will be all over it.

Would you consider selling just the Keycaps from the 970?

Wishful thinking with those "tall green" Alps, methinks — they seem to be regular SKCC Green.

I PMed you again, now with an offer and with the proper ID, I had the wrong reference previously, imgur sucks at sorting things. Thank you.

I might be interested in some of the Model F and SSKs, but the prices I saw on eBay under your username somewhat scared me away... (Exchange rates + shipping aren't helping either.)

You will not be posting pictures of the IBMs or Apples? Why not?

Hey all, I'm responding to emails as quickly as I can but wanted to let everyone know that I may be a little slow until next week. I will respond to everyone, but my girlfriend is heading back to the land of the electrostatic capacitive system's (Japan) so I'm trying to enjoy my last few days with her. I will try to update the stat us of claimed/sold keyboards this weekend but will keep everything current starting next week. ;

I did want to address Darkshado's statement quickly - my eBay prices will always be higher because I thoroughly clean each cap & keyboard, and have to factor in fees etc. Just PM me and I'm sure we can work something out. :)

Thanks to everyone for taking a look at these! I'm tempted to keep everything :evilgeek: but I'm glad y'all can give em good homes!

How about posting some actual PRICES in your sale ?!? If you just take offers then it would be nice to mention that also, no need to mention what you do for GREED_bay though.

That basically sums it up.
