Silly high price for a 5251 in that condition.
Even that is about double the price I would pay. Four digits is Symbolics territory. Consider how many of the smaller beamsprings where found last year!seebart wrote: ↑

Something like this 3279 in really good condition is approaching that price range:

Stuck keys are usually caused by sticky disintegrating foam sticking on the sense pad and fly plate. After cleaning both of those with some mild soap, it should be good to go. Those things are near indestructible.
Exactly.
The Cherry G80-5000 has always been expensive but we see that price adjust upward now also.jerue wrote: ↑Another ANSI G80-5000 ErgoPlus in the wild...and at $1199 because at that price it *has* to be more appealing than the $1400 one that's been sitting on eBay forever
Yeah BIN prices are not representative but I remember MX5000 selling for well above €500 three years ago.hansichen wrote: ↑Some time ago a German 5k with 5700 sold for 306€, that's not bad. BIN prices are often a joke, nothing to worry about

bruno_muc is the greediest SOB on this side of the Galaxy! I know he is watching every single nixie related post here and at GH to maximize his GREED.
Right, I bought a CT06 from him for 20 Euros, soon after he sold them for 250 now for 3000...why are you defending this greedy SOB wodan?Wodan wrote: ↑Well bruno_muc is also the source for quite a lot of CHEAP Nixdorf CT06 that DT members got for ~50€ before he realized they were worth far more.

Same one has been relisted. The curious thing is that the listing required immediate payment, meaning someone actually paid the $1000 and the transaction still fell through. This from a new, zero feedback seller...smells like the same old funny business we've seen before.
The seller wrote back to me and said it has "blue switches". Does anyone know what they could be?Damonskv wrote: ↑Someone from usa should pick it up https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre ... 3089980710
Interesting. The Montereys came with different switches, possibly concurrently, but I haven't seen green Alps until now. The LED slot rules out blue Alps, and they aren't SMK, so greens would be my guess also. The label suggests a branding of "Staff", whatever that might mean.
