Hi, I am selling an IBM P70 ISO ITA layout in pristine conditions*. Keycaps (edit) have been ultrasonicly cleaned, sanitized and all. It comes with its genuine cable adapted to ps/2 standard plug. It has been tested too and every switch registers flawlessly as you can see from the last pic listed below:

* just a faint scratch on the IBM grey badge and a replaced rubber pad (left in the pic) noteworthy.

Price is 150€+shipping but I am open to fair negotiations. Fell free to PM me for futher details.

How did you ultrasonicly clean it? Did you desolder the switches or just take the top housing, slider and plate off? Did it dramatically improve the key feel? Curious for my own plate spring.

Nothing of all that, of course. I am referring to the sole keycaps. My both P70s don't seem to need such a deep clean and the switches still sound very good.

Hi body, thanks for the appreciation. I myself consider them quite underrated. Their clickeness wouldn't be as smooth as blue Alps' but wtf, they're first class as well imho.

Looks good, best of luck with the sale, as for clicky switches yeah they're honestly pretty good especially when you take it into consideration the price of a board with these generally.

Thanks for wishing me good luck. To be honest I'd have said thanks even if you sent me somewhere off, if it's useful to keep this post top on the spy page. Ahahah....
