Packing and shipping heavy gear is a LOT of work. I know because I've been
selling off years of accumulated gear that I will never get to. You have to
price it on the lower end of "reasonable," and be willing to pack it. I
don't want my XYL to have to deal with this. It is so much work that the
simplest route is the landfill. That is especially true of parts like
transformers. Taking things to the "UPS Store" and having them pack it is
prohibitively expensive unless something is really valuable.
Having said that, I still can't help myself from picking up mor bargains.

Will the seller ship the gear????
Seems lately that "non-shipping" is a big issue with some. Maybe even
this particular situation.
I've recently been involved in an SK estate where non-shipping was a big
turn off to one individual. Just wanting to see if this case is
different. Negative postings to this list about the subject in my
situation didn't fully understand the sellers (xyl) needs or personal
situation.
Let us all know the rules.

Something happened with the last list I sent. Here is the complete
message:
The daughter continues to inventory what her dad left behind with his
passing, but here is an updated list
I've put together from what I've seen so far. For those who have
inquired, the equipment is located in Toledo, Ohio.
She is more interested in getting the items to those who will use them,
instead of buying them just to flip them.
I am simply trying to help her out because she knows almost nothing about
ham radio and is asking my help in identifying items that are ham related
and what my thoughts are on their potential. She has already declined an
estate buyer offer for everything because she knows the buyer would just
double prices and flip them.
Part of the problem is that her dad was also into stereo equipment, so we
have to single them out from the ham related stuff. Her dad was employed
in the electronics field for many years and has some equipment that goes
back to the 60s, and comes forward to some of the most recent stuff sold
like an IC 7600.
I'm sure there will be more coming, but here's what I have seen so far...
Heil Pro 40 microphone
Icom IC7600 (still has the plastic over part of the front panel)
Yaesu FT 101B
Viking Valiant
BK 1471B scope
Icom IC-R70
Grundig satellit 800 Millenium shortwave receiver
Icom IC-R1 scanner which covers up to 1300 mhz
IC VR500 receiver which covers up to 2600 mhz and retailed for $995 new
Gonset GSB 101 amp
Yaesu FL2100B amp
Viking Invader
Tempo 2020 transceiver
A number of new in box Wilson 1000 mobile antennas
Yaesu FLDX 2000 amp
NCL 2000 amp
Siltronix Model 90 VFO
Arrow 6 meter ground plane GP52 antenna new in package
Grundig Satellit 750 shortwave receiver
Galaxy 100FC frequency counter
Viking Challenger
Kenwood SM230 station monitor
Radio Shack DX402 and DX394 receivers
Adonis AM 7500E microphone
Kenwood PS52 power supply
KLV 1000 amplifier (this is a new one, but I've told her most hams
consider them junk)
Kenwood TS520SE
A number of very good condition D-104 microphones
Midland 22-50 microphone test base
Grundig Satellit 750 shortwave receiver
Again, no prices have been set. If youre interested, she is more than
willing to negotiate so she can get these to people who want to use them
rather than resell them. She's already turned down an estate purchaser
because she knows he would just double prices and resell them.
