unboxing

Some back story, since all this was fucking odd.

I got a call from a friend saying that someone was selling hundreds of new (or barely used) IBM keyboards for 30 USD each. He guessed they were IBM M2

Why not? I called the guy and asked how he got them.

> idk why but this keyboard is selling like crazy

Yes, stupid. An used one goes for 100 USD. You are selling brand new or barely used ones for 25 + 5 shipping

I asked him how many he had. Only 5 left

Who and where? Obviously that guy has already sold out of Model Ms but maybe there are some other good deals?

I was ready to buy 100. When he said he only had 5 it was disappointing. I asked for all 5, but he said he couldn't ship all five easily and some other crap.

Since at that moment I thought he was selling the M2, I thought it would be fair to buy only one.

To my surprise it was not the M2

>(((barely used))) IBM keyboards
Ugh, no thanks. There's probably more cum deposits on those than on a bang bus.

Most likely some company outside Brazil, or maybe they didn't produce Ms in brazilian layout

Well, most likely new, since it was in the box. I can't be sure, but the keyboard is not yellow at all

Fug man.

That listing says that only 1 was sold.
Maybe he created others? I can't find his username on Mercado Livre.

But really, knowing these Mercado Livre sellers (bought my X201 and a lot of other stuff there), seeing that a lot of people were after the keyboards, you can be sure that he kept some Model M's and is gonna announce them again for a lot more.
