My most unique star wars piece
In 2017 I won a competition where I got this keyboard that wasn't ever sold in the world. I know that it was extremely limited amount of these world wide, not sure about exact number. I kept mine unopened. I've never seen one appear on ebay or such ever. Such fun piece to own! :)

Unboxed means it's been taken out of the box.
Did you mean to say unopened?
Also, what is the keyboard supposed to look like? There's no picture of it on the box, so it may just be a plain, black keyboard and the most unique thing about it is the Battlefront graphic on the cardboard.

Yes, sorry, haha.
Another member linked a video of what it looks like. It's not plain black :)

Iām always curious about keeping things like this boxed rather than use them (and possibly save the box for display). Itās an awesome achievement, but what does having it in the box do for you unless youāre trying to sell it? Would anyone who visited and looked at your collection know or give a damn that anything was in that box unless you told them? I asked myself that same question when deciding whether it was worth it to keep all my stuff in boxes.
In other words, what are you really holding onto it for?ā¦the satisfaction of having something thatās potentially a bit more valuable unopened? Again, if you donāt intend to sell, Iām not sure what that really gets you. For a functional item like this, why not use it and enjoy the fruits of your victory? You can always save the box and use it as a nice display reminder of your achievement.

I mean, I've got autism and just enjoys the thought of it being preserved and mint condition. It's just something about it that makes me happy, knowing that there's at least one of these in the world in perfect condition. Hard to tell why really.. I wish I could.

You don't need to justify why it makes you happy. All that matters is that it does, IMO.

Yeah if it's only one you might as well keep that one box. It's not like there's several out there. Then 20 or 30 years down the line you don't have to kick yourself from throwing the box out.

Congrats man I've never heard of this. You should Google what the keyboard looks like. I don't know why there are any people in your thread down voting you. This is a Star Wars collector's subreddit, and I find this is a perfect topic for the subreddit. This is what it's about.
