This isn't exactly a "great find", but I didn't want to start a whole thread about it.

This looks like a Harris branded WYSE WY-50. Even the plug is identical.

In the 70's Harris rebranded TEK terminals. (not to be confused with Hi-Tek)

Could be buckling spring, could be dome.

I got it and I'm typing on it. It's buckling spring, my first buckling spring. Today is a nice day (:

http://www.ebay.de/itm/191536261315 Dolch ISO DE less than 3 hrs left

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Epson-HX-20-Comp ... 1812970826 Cherry M8

http://www.ebay.de/itm/121602383008 Quite the resemblance with the Cherry G80-0662

Spoiler:

http://www.ebay.de/itm/161639808247 Lots of junk but 2 or 3 might be interesting. Top left should be a Maxiswitch with MX mount SP doubleshots. Fourth one on the left looks like some Focus. Fourth one on the right might be a Philips with space invaders. Take with caution as those are only (half blind) guesses from my side.

http://www.ebay.de/itm/331509519208 Potential Cheapro if someone needs relegendables.

grrr, missed the dolch.... anyone grabbed that?

dyger · 22 Mar 2015, 22:02

my highest bid was 110€ but I felt like more would be too much...

I am interested to know how this keyboard feels, too. The NG0100 was introduced in 2004 and it looks like these ones on eBay are early models as they have the old logo plate. I'd say it's probably close to 9-10 years old and NIB, so curious to know if the rubber still feels snappy. It should be fine though as I have the Just Systems re-brand of this board and it feels great.

that`s a really good price for those caps!

scottc · 23 Mar 2015, 11:24

Wow, great price for those caps. The 1.75U shift is great.

Nice, so at least two of them went to DT already.

seebart wrote: ↑that`s a really good price for those caps!

Indeed, why haven't you bought one yet?

Can proxy if needed and if you don't mind that I can't ship before next week.

ramnes · 23 Mar 2015, 11:27

Took one also. Maybe I'll need a German proxy though.

elRetto · 23 Mar 2015, 11:30

got one aswell

ramnes · 23 Mar 2015, 11:31

I'm hesitating on getting a second one. Someone take the last one, please!

elRetto · 23 Mar 2015, 11:33

if you buy this one you'll get no good deals for the next half year

guk · 23 Mar 2015, 11:35

Yup, let's not be greedy here. I initially had the same thought but it's too nice a deal to not be shared.

Thanks, but I've already got a few of these boards (mostly winkeys and lasered grey caps though), so I think I'd rather let someone else get one first.

I just did for € 15!

scottc · 23 Mar 2015, 11:47

Wow, I didn't notice that they were NIB. Now I'm reconsidering my judgement!

Oh I also didn't realise it was G81, I don't feel so bad anymore

ramnes · 23 Mar 2015, 11:57

People in that TX1800 group buy will be mad when they'll see it's already out of stock.

Portable IBM XT keyboard

mr_a500 · 23 Mar 2015, 14:28

It has an adapter too. I'd get it if I didn't already have two. I love them.

I'm surprised these things are still available, green "T" ALPS, NOS $24.95:

what is green T alps like?

Nuum · 23 Mar 2015, 18:09

In my Apple M0110 they are super pingy and have a nice thock on bottom out, but that's mainly due to the very roomy case. I'd like to purchase one of those IBM boards some day, but everytime they surface I'm low on money and shipping is really quite expensive.

ne0phyte · 23 Mar 2015, 18:22

Yeah that IBM board looks awesome, but the shipping really kills it for me too.
