Blimey. I've you're in America I probably wouldn't bother with this sale. Even if you won it at 20 quid, you'd end up paying more than the keyboard's worth in total!

At £14 for UK shipping, you can probably assume that shipping to the US will be eye watering!

I would expect £60+ for shipping, honestly. There is no country worse than the UK for shipping!

Which is a shame, the rackmount form factor is pretty sick.
I guess my lackrack doesn't need a dedicated keyboard to the tune of £30 shipping
Edit: 30 is what he told me. I guess that's not bad for UK -> US

£30 for shipping that thing from UK to US? I would have thought much higher than that, unless he's planning on shipping it freight

Well if you two are bidding I think I will back down. I wanted the doubleshots with the 1.75 shift for my 60%, but not really bothered about the rest of it.

That's a bigfoot, not an XT. Same physical layout, bigger case and weirder controller!Dra wrote: ↑Model F XT, appears to be in a fairly decent condition

Someone got that beamspring displaywriter relatively cheaply too. Hopefully, it's someone from here.

About 79 but I was not expecting to get it. Anyway a few of those vintage keyboards he's still got in there till tuesday are interesting so we'll see if I get one or two of those. Not everyone is getting the chance and it's very unusual for this many to pop up, especially over here. One exclusive combination I do now have is a Beamspring Displaywriter and Model F Displaywriter.

Did they have Dolby in 198x? That looks more like some THX Ultra certified. CrazyBlaise170 wrote: ↑Might be speakers.
EDIT: I should use as the soundbar for the TV. To my wife... "What do you think?!?"
