If there was some "inherent unreliability or fragility", I think we'd all know about it by know - and so would Amazon.

I don't disagree, I am not trying to make any point I just thought it was a lot.
I must have been bored today because just after I posted my question I then did another ebay search (UK).
Searching by "Kindle Keyboard" produced 197 results but 4 of those were just cases leaving 193
Using "Kindle Keyboard (fault, faulty, spares, repairs, broken, cracked)" produced 37.
I then looked at the low value Keyboards that did not mention any fault in the description and immediately found another 13 being sold as "spares or repairs". I stopped looking at about £9. So the total number that were faulty was 50 which is 26%.
