This keyboard took almost three weeks to sell, which is about average when it comes to selling a keyboard of this quality. It’s not a high-end keyboard by any means, but it’s reliable.
I got this keyboard from the local thrift store for $12.99. The photos were shot in front of my fireplace where I usually stage my product photoshoots. I posted the ad listings on FB Marketplace and Craigslist for $80.
Here’s the ad description I wrote for this item:
