Hello everyone I represent an estate sale company currently trying to sell a bunch of vintage computers. While most other companies would be content to throw everything out that doesn't sell, I'm a collector myself so I'd hate to see them resigned to such a fate. Unfortunately I just don't have any space to save things, so whatever we don't sell at the end of our sale tomorrow on Saturday probably will get thrown out. That's why I'm reaching out to the community here in hopes of drawing some collectors out at the last minute.

Here a link to the sale:

What you can expect to find: Basically everything from the early x86 family (8088-486), including various parts, keyboards, monitors, modems, and a huge assortment of floppy disks and zip disks. C64 with 1902 monitor, alongside some Atari games and peripherals. We we have what I believe are a couple of S-100 cards.
Lastly, we also have a bunch of punch cards, mainframe style data tape, and various mainframe parts including a huge core memory module.

Sadly, we won't be able to ship and there's not much I can do about that, since it's up to the owner of the company and not me.
 
Wow, I hope someone snaps these systems up. CA is too far from OH or I would be there.
 
That looks like some very nice stuff. One would think that sort of stuff would get snatched up if for no other reason than to flip on eBeh. Have as many people still been getting out to estate sales due to Covid?

If something like that were to come up in the Atlanta area, I'd be all over that.
 
Hey guys just wanted to provide some closure! We managed to sell almost everything except for a few remaining floppy disks and a monitor that had some issues.

If you saw our listing and came out to the sale, thank you! Our company and the homeowner appreciate it very much.
