It was more a friendly prod to hint at what some would consider "good listing practises".

OwO

I’ll give a good Muirium price and say $100 + shipping.

$100 is fair. It is very old after all. High mileage.

Glad you agree! I was striving for fair… I mean…. it doesn’t even have RGB and that layout is completely unusable. I’m doing a favor at that price!

Edit- I might also be willing to trade a BNIB board with white linear space invaders or black clicky space invaders for it!

Your chance to get another one.

Actually, I could maybe spare 10 of those princely beasts. In a convenient, original outer box.

The caps on the bottom row are put backwards and I cannot unsee.

Eh? The left & right arrow keys look a bit aggressive, but they're actually the same profile as the "Rep" keys surrounding the spacebar; whose legends show they are correctly oriented.

PM’d

please disclose price after sale. Would be good to have something like a market price for this thing.

Somewhere between $1k-9k usd It's such a niche market for stuff like this so it will always be difficult to say. More common variants regularly go for $1k-$1700.

Niche, yes, but clearly growing. I remember when Beamsprings were cheaper and less crazily in demand than industrial SSKs. How else could I have scored 2 even I still never have had the latter?

There’s absolutely more of a pool of buyers for beamers now. Or they’d still be down in the µ price scale: a numbering system which ends a good way before it reaches four figures!

Someone offered Jacob like 5k for his but he decided it was worth 5k to be able to jump into any thread that mentions beam springs in general or the beam ship in particular and remind us all that he has one.

It’s worth even more when you didn’t just buy it for a great big wad of filthy cash, but got your paws on it back before it was cool.

My Kishsaver is worth a fair penny now, too, but it’s worth more to me than any other one bought now, because I pulled it out the box Tinnie sent from Hong Kong, alongside Soarer’s and several more. Future stars, all yet to be discovered.

You can only sell it once, you can brag forever.

This is the same case for my Unsaver, I got it for $150 from DV and it's worth a lot more than that now but it's probably my favorite board. Also I am in the minority on this but I don't like selling any board for over a grand, even though I've bought them for more than that
