Sounds about right. What's the current rate of conversion from kidneys->£$?

photekq, I currently have a similar problem. I have some vintage Cherry boards/Frankenboards where I have no idea about the value, cause there just isn't anything to compare with.

So... it's very hard to hang a price tag on most of your items. Especially when you say there are only 1 or 2 known of.

IBM 3278. Very, very good condition internals. Dirty casing with messed up paint. Needs a refinishing.
One of the smaller ones recently sold on eBay for $350. Much more than I'd be willing to pay though, especially since I just got a Displaywriter.

They seem to sell, albeit slowly, at about $300. On the low end, I've seen Cindy selling them for $100.

I would say those prices are overrated for the G80-2100 HDF and underrated for the G80-3000 HFMGB.
The G80-3000 HFMGB is probably worth quite more than the G80-2100 HDF.

In any case, I would offer photekq a G80-2100 HDF and a G-80-2100 HDD for his G80-3000 HFMGB :lol:

Thanks Ivan. If those prices are indeed accurate I think I might aswell just keep the boards :lol: I paid more than that for most of them. I know a few of them are quite off.

3116SDU for example I know is around $500, and the 1220/HAQ/HAR should be more than $90/200/120.

Input on the 2100/2000/others was much appreciated though, as I'm not sure about their value.

Because it's nib and it has Cherry ANSI dyesub keycaps, which people (incl. myself) pay a lot for.

Well... I know we've had some arguments about the topic before so... as always, my pricing is conservative and based more on US buyer market. Some items you have to compete with current available keysets that are going to be good enough for many buyers, as they are barely different. Myself and many others won't pay 400% markup for trivial differences.
2000 122 key series boards have been commanding a decent premium lately as they are quite scarce in North America. the 1200 has nothing interesting about it other than a nonstandard cable which most people would simply find to be nothing more than a nuisance, not a selling point. Otherwise it's just a 1000HAU, nice but hardly anything special.
If you want top dollar, put them on auction.

Yeah, I understand.. I probably should have excluded the 1220, 3116, etc. since I already know what they are worth. It's the other stuff I'm not too sure about, which you definitely helped with. Thanks.

I realise they are less desirable, but what would you pay for a Model M 93 52G9658? Based in Australia, so prices are a little higher I would think. I'm on the buying end.

I know the board is nothing special. It's just that I've nerver seen the ds 1.25 mods before. So basicly ~30€?

I'd love those 1.25 mods also. Never in my budget, though.
