• Please review our updated Terms and Rules here
  • From now on we will require that a prefix is set for any items in the sales area. We have created regions and locations for this. We also require that you select a delivery option before posting your listing. This will hopefully help us streamline the things that get listed for sales here and help local people better advertise their items, especially for local only sales. New sales rules are also coming, so stay tuned.

It's time to downsize, and non-core to my hardware collection are these two fine, clean (clean booting and no dirt) PS/2 machines available for USD$400 firm for the lot, pick up only in Westchester County NY. Will consider trades of DEC equipment, high end test equipment, high end 2-channel stereo equipment.

Read closely and carefully because these are jam packed with neat stuff. These are not your average 50Z !!!

Hobbyists only! Items below only. Sorry, I have no original IBM monitors!

I know you want to sell the lot but in case that doesn’t happen, I’d pay $200 for that Soundblaster in the model 80 provided you’d ship it
 
The Sound Blaster Pro 2 would most likely fetch more than $400 at auction, or sold separately at sites like AmiBay.

I'd love to find one - took me 2 years to find my boxed/complete Sound Blaster MCA back in 2009. Lucked into it, really, especially at the price I paid. MCA sound cards are always prohibitively expensive...
 
Folks,

I'm glad that the MCA Sound Blaster will make this lot a good value indeed. My price for the lot as listed remains as originally listed. I really want it all to go, and all go to a good home. Call your friend in the metro NYC area to help you (and me) out here.

If the deal wasn't sweet enough, I'll throw in the big bright beautiful CRT Viewsonic monitor that is in one of the pictures.

Folks,

We now have two interested parties. One who sent a message earlier and another later. I have sent PMs to both. Thank you all for following this thread. If a deal does not occur, I will post so here.
