Why do I always have to learn my lessons the hard way!

I literally felt sick when I found out about this. So as is always stated in scrapping basics, ALWAYS check what you have to see if it's worth more than scrap! Now I've always done this, and alot of times if I can't find any info I run it through at least one auction and if it doesn't sell then I scrap it. HOWEVER, I took for granted a simple item I never thought twice about being worth anything...KEYBOARDS! Then I read in a post something about an IBM keyboard being worth something. While working in the garage I came across this BLACK IBM M13 KEYBOARD that I forgot about. So I took a look on ebay for sold listings and what do I find...SOLD for $130..another one SOLD for $168 (with 20 bids)...another SOLD for $225! Awesome, and guess what, I CUT THE CORD OFF!!!

Do you think there are refurbishers out there that would still buy this as is that could replace the cord? I might just throw it on ebay with a low starting bid to see what happens.

I'd put another cord on myself.

yep parts but do not feel to bad I have learned to check everything by costly mistakes as well as I am sure a lot here have. think of it as a cheaper college education in scrapping, your keyboarding class you may have to take over again but you will make 10 times for money now and will ace it next time.

You can just replace the cord! Post a closeup of that label on the bottom and I'll verify the pinout for you.
