Most of the time I onl get shipping for the oldies but on occasion I'll ask for
a few bucks to cover the time involved in getting it packed and down to the post
office as well. On other occasions I maight make 5 bucks over but it's rare on
the oldies that you can make a profit anyway. The 386SX and up I can turn a few
dollars since they're still in the realm of everyday use.

No. I've never sold a computer at a profit.
Sometimes I've had to buy more
than one of a machine to get one at all (i.e. the seller has a pile he
wants to get rid of), but then I either keep them as spares or pass them
on to other UK collectors _for the price I payed_.
I am with Tony on this one. I only ever pass things on to other
collectors for the same price that I payed for them. I fact last year I
saved some DEC Bridges from a skip and after deciding that I wouldn't have
a use for them I passed them onto Tony as I knew they would be going to a
good home.
