Was that guy a scrapper who got in pallets of similar

kept them? It seems if you can hold onto something a few years after most
get scrapped they tend to have some value again. I recall when most IIgs
systems were flooding the scrappers you could not give them away, now people
pay for them again. Apple II, II+,IIe have some value these days.
There are people with basements full of C64's, I kind of wonder why they
keep them all (since most seem to be in pieces and non working).
They didn't say. He made it sound like he got them one at a time, but I
suspect he just cleaned out schools when they unloaded. One printer had a
some sort of waste sticker on it.
