I found a Depraz mouse the other day (Type D 83 / P) while going through moving boxes. I
used to - long time ago - make things out of broken or disassembled computer gear. There
was the most amazing store in Dover, NJ called Second Byte where I spent too much time and
money (according to my ex-wife). I purchased this mouse 30 years ago with no particular
project in mind, and it has just stayed packed away.
I'm looking to sell it but I admittedly don't know what it's worth. I see two
of them on eBay for $20-$30K, but don't see any Sold Items as a reference. Those sale
prices sound largely aspirational.
The mouse is in pretty amazing physical condition, with only basic scuffing on the red
surface. The larger spots you see are reflections. The cable has scuffs but no fraying at
all. The ball turns when the mouse is rolled. No pins are bent on the connector (RS-232 /
DB9?). The three buttons click.
Any insight - or offers - is welcomed.
Thanks.
