    I dream of one day finding an original Model M keyboard in a Goodwill or yard sale for like $10. Every time I’m in a thrift store I look over the electronics section JUST in case.

    Also waiting for the day I find a random copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga for the Sega Saturn. Only 20,000 north American copies were made, which sounds like a lot but in video game numbers is insanely low. I’ve only ever seen it in the real world once at a gaming convention and it sold for $1,500.

      Goodwill has competent people to notice and divert such things to online auction. You’re better off checking pawn shops in crappy towns/cities.

      JFC I had that game! Only could get like six games for the Saturn in the US (nights into dreams, clockwork toy knight, a tactical RPG that had a big rabbit in the intro (sorry I forgot the name), owner dragoon, and virutua fighter). Dan I had so many super obscure games from the discount bin cause they weren’t popular new. Now everybody wants them.

      If you want the model M just for it’s feel you should check out Unicomp keyboards. They make modernized versions that feel identical according to a friend who uses one. Although they are way more expensive than 10 dollars.
