Converted to internal usb using a pro-micro and soarers converter. The pro micro is mounted inside the case and terminates to a female mini-usb, will include a mini-usb to computer cable.
Convertible to a different plug type, just swap out the micro-mini usb pigtail to something else
Reversible, will include the original cable with XT connector. to switch it back you would open the case and swap out the pro micro with the original connector
Internally the board is very clean, I was surprised at condition of foam
Outside is very clean, with exception of the F3 key which is damaged, its still functional, but the edge of the cap is damaged. you can buy replacement keys online
Two of the cork feet are missing, you can find replacements at your favorite super store
Note: I flashed the pro-micro before posting, but keep in mind that Soarer’s Converter software is quite old. It still works, I tested the board fine, but its a little quirky to program.

This is different from V2, please do your research!
Layout is ANSI with a hot swap PCB
Includes an extra compatible solder PCB (keep in mind that case layout still restricts you to ANSI layout). I’ve plugged in the solder PCB and it lights up and a few spots tested fine. The hot swap PCB is inside the case which is still plastic wrapped so I cannot test that.
Brass badge
Still sealed in plastic
* Will ship in original box, inside another box
Note: As this GB was a long time ago, everything is unbuilt but you are buying it as-is.
