Do you know the DEC order number or name?

Hi Bill,
I have a early 80's soap-bar mouse that uses the aluminized X/Y grid mouse
pad. I offered it here and ebay for $20 bucks with no interest.

DEC
I'm not expecting thousands of $ for it. I
found a cool, and possibly
consequential vintage computer accessory. Then I saw $20K-$30K
listings for it online, so naturally I want to learn more and try to
establish a potential sale price.
I have a couple old DC mice. The kind with DB9 not the kind with
the mini-din plug. I have offered them for sale
a number of times
over the years. So far the highest offer I have ever got was $0.
Apparently these things are worthless. Mine are interesting mostly
because with all the years I have worked with DEC equipment I have
never learned what they might have been used on. They are still
in the basement in a box somewhere but once I am gone I am sure
my wife will now what to do with them. :-)
