Will be interesting to see how high they go.
The last ones ended lower than this one, but weren't posted here.

The price got jacked up due to some early bidding...

Now it is mine ^^. It is more expensive then i hoped it would be (shame on these early bidders and bidwarefreaks -.-) but i was searching for one since some years now (prosit on the ebay search alert) without much luck (hard to find). Beside the high price i am worried about the paint damage. Never seen something similar befor on an IBM board. So now i am searching for a good condition spare part of the upper housing/case and hope i will have some luck. (Now that i have the german keycaps ( :D ) ... maybe it is easier to find it in any other language ... we will see *sigh* hate waiting).

Ouch, I have seen better keyboard for far less in the US (though those were Qwerty ones of course).

What you see there is the real colour of the plastic, the rough surface of the model F is actually some kind of paint. It must have been scraped off through bad handling, cause I have a somewhat beaten up XT which has none of those problems...

Good point. (Viewing eBay on a 3.5 inch display, I never noticed! Newb's mistake.)

I've an XT, too, and I've played with an AT side by side. They're both tough as a brick, uh, outhouse. No small incident would have caused that kind of bruise. Hopefully it still works. The case took a hit that would have snapped most keyboards in two!

I recently bought a F AT in US for 100€. It is in very good condition (looks like new), but shipping cost and import tax made it more expensive then the recent one on german ebay.

The seller said it is fully working and apart from these painting damage in good condition... i hope this is right (not so easy to believe ^^). We will see (should arrive within this week). The most important part for me are the German Keycaps and i hope they just need some cleaning.
Now i can hunt for an IBM PC AT in better condition in any language/layout ... hopefully it will not take more than two years again. Qwertz model f are harder to find then qwerty i think/hope (never searched for other than german layout until today but from now on nothing can stop me^^).

@Snoopy: And you want to donate me this model f ? ... that is sooo nice ^^ (dreaming is not forbidden :mrgreen: ).

Saw this one as well. It doesnt look very G80ish....I would ask for picture of the label and maybe a cap upside down.

That's the seller from which I sniped a g81-3000 SAD, thus preventig him from shill-bidding as usual.

Obviously he stopped cheating by now, but who knows? So beware if one of those appears in the bidder list:
2***2 (460)
i***t (290)
i***n (986)
v***e (128)

Good luck guys, I won't bid on this one - I'm quite sure I would never get it even if I won the auction :lol:
