I've gotten a few private emails about the Suns, thanks. The catch is, we won't be able to pack and ship anything. Just finding a box capable of holding an e420r is difficult, then you have to staple it, strap it, etc. All this stuff is heavy, even the smaller boxes.
It seems that there is enough interest where some enterprising young lad could fly to NJ, rent a truck, and lug it back to NC and then resell it at a profit. As far as my company though, we need someone to come get it, especially the large e6500s which are a full cabinet in size. Again, thanks for all the interest. I hate to give this gear away for $1000.
