Hi everyone,

I have for sale this IBM 3278 75 keys spanish layout. Good overall shape with minimal rust spots. Will ship worldwide except china and a few other countries, ask first. Preferable EU/UK/USA

Case is pretty good as well but it does not matter because I will include a metal door. Powdercoat it in any color you like

Asking price: 1200€ + shipping (paypal friends or + fees), around $1304,20 USD in today's paypal conversion, shipping should be around 60-100€ more

Feel free to ask questions and offer trades.

P.S.: Includes solenoid, original controller and cable

Quick question? Why don't you ship to China?

I am very new to deskthority and I think I am missing something...

High rate of scams with no chance of retaining the keyboard/funds, incredibly long shipping times, etc etc.

Didn't ups pay for it? I only ship with insurance, if it gets lost they have to pay for it.

Is this board converted to USB/QMK? Also how is the condition of the switches (has it already been fixed and cleaned by you?)

Thanks

not converted to usb, you just need a plug and play controller. Switches don't wobble much and foam is original. I think restoring a beam (doing foam) is part of the experience of owning one, but you can use it right away with the appropriate controller (I recommend QMK) because foam is in good condition
