This is definitely interesting to me, if not very practical.

Not really. Moderately overpriced perhaps. Less than $100 would be better. Looks to be in great shape. These don't seem to have the same cachet as their XT cousins. Easily converted with a Teensy though.

Edit: I didn't realize that $160 was the starting bid. Yikes!

All the drawbacks of the XT, now in a much more inconvenient case!

Seriously, the bigfoot case is one of the nicest wrist rests I have ever used. I used my bigfoot for a few weeks and enjoyed it.

welp. That escalated quickly...
Yup, I watched that live... from $1,025 to $1,975 in a few minutes. Sounds like it ended up in the hands of a serious collector.

Good.

When it reached 355 USD, I thought it would stay there for several days. Now it's at 480. This has all the markings of a legendary bidding war.
Now its at $630 :cry:
God, that was so three days ago. It's reached $1000 and it still two days and fourteen hours to go. :shock:
It finally finished at $1,975 USD...$2k with shipping. For a single keyboard! I guess some collectors have deep pockets. Power to 'em, I guess!

I'm just awaiting the revival of the model MF group buy. It's clearly needed now more than ever. Talk about pent up demand for a TKL sized model F!

Is the FSSK not an option anymore?
