I just came across a lot of 90+ compact macs. Everything from 512k to se/30. Where would be a good place to get the word out (besides ebay).
I'm sure someone else will mention the Low End Mac swap list. You might also consider the news groups. UseNet was *the place* to exchange stuff on the net before Ebay reared its ugly head. Relevant news groups include comp.sys.mac.wanted (also used for selling), misc.forsale.computers.mac-specific.xxx, where xxx represents a variety of news groups.
The main problem with the news groups is that since the rise of Ebay, there just isn't much traffic (i.e. shoppers) there any more. But it's free. Ebay tries to convince people that using Ebay is somehow more secure, but I've had fewer problems with buyers on the news groups than I've had with some of the dunderheads on Ebay. On the other hand, I've probably conducted two or three times as many transactions on Ebay as I did on the news groups.
Sigh. The reality is that the buyers are shopping on Ebay now days.
