Just a friendly bump. Did anyone post this on vcfed or any mac collector 
forums? 


I went there. There was no Apple stuff that I saw, mostly 386 and 486 
computers. He is a scrapper as a retirement job in RVA and does a lot of 
Hamfests, been doing the for many years.


Prices are based on eBay sold prices, minus a percentage. He said he has 
one or two people that will buy large amounts of stuff straight up then 
eBay it all -- sometimes parting it all out.


Much of the systems from that haul had rust/corrosion - they were in some 
sort of overgrown garage, they were all university / govt surplus from a 
long time ago.


Sounds like he gets cool things from time to time, for free. And you will 
pay a decent amount to get them from him :-) Such is life.


My friend bought 5 computers, 2 PS/2 systems (one 386 and one 486) and 3 
generic 386 computers. Came in at $100. The PS/2 systems were pretty rough 
though (corrosion on metal parts internally.)


I think friends are going back to try to buy some CGA monitors.

Ya roll the dice!

REALLY need a scrounger in Richmond, VA 
Dude just pulled 2 truckloads of early Apple and 386/486 computers and
keyboards out of storage and is scrapping them. I REALLY need somebody there
to sort the good from the trash. Can anybody help? He gave me one week to
come up with someone to scrounge, then it all goes for scrap.
