Dang... I'd been looking for a spare keyboard for ages for my towered A1200 (using an old A1500 keyboard just now) and only a few days ago I finally got one on ebay for £27 ($43)... :)

Now another one pops up... might be tempted though if you willing to ship to the UK and the shipping cost isn't too high... :)

(PS:which model is it, ie: A2000, A3000, A4000... :))

The front shows "Commodore Amiga" without a particular model number.  The details are shown at AmiBay.  Overseas shipping will likely cost more than the keyboard itself!


The model number on your sale "KKQ-E94YC" is the same as the one I got off eBay. It was sold as being an A3000 keyboard but it's actually an A4000 keyboard (A4000 keyboards have a small 6 pin DIN connector) but can be used with an appropriate adapter than converts it to the larger (standard) 5 PIN dins used on the A2000 & A3000... :)

Shame the postage would be too high, but good luck with the sale... :)

No, this is not an A4000 keyboard.  It fits A2000/3000.  It would need an adapter to be used with the small DIN A4000 keyboard port.  I really like the feel to it -- not overly springy -- and I have an identical one that I use on my A3000.


Odd... the one I just bought has the same model number but it has the small 6 pin DIN connector (A4000) and came with the adapter to convert it to the A2000/3000...

They must've used the same model number for the UK and USA versions... :confused:
