Unless they are qualified as working in proper order, they are just
scrap and should be priced accordingly.

I think most people here would disagree with you. How many people would
scrap a KI10, 11/20, PDP8 or any piece of classic computer equipment if it
was not "working in proper order"?
I usually discuss this with the potential buyer.
I have never heard a technically skilled person say that.

In other words, all your inventory was pulled decades ago and has been
rotting away in some warehouse on a shelf and is a restoration project.
Got it.

Not sure what this attack on Paul is about, but his collection is from
one of the largest DEC resale operations on the map. It is in great
shape from everything I've gotten from him as can be expected for
decades old hardware.
I'm not stooping to insulting whatever else anyone might have in
whatever shape it is in, as mine is in as good as most any of us who
aren't Paul Allen can keep it. And look how well that played out.

Same, I haven't bought a ton off Paul, just some QBus stuff a few years ago when I was
getting my PDP-11/73 squared away, but everything was as advertised.
Thanks,

Since DEC hasn't made anything in decades, all DEC items are decades old.
So what's the problem? Do you hate just DEC items, or everything that old?

Feel free not to buy anything from him, then, but please leave
the list out of it.
