Did you try sending him an email from the adress on

messages about buying stuff outside of ebay and ebay has gotten draconian
about filtering ebay messages now. All email address get filtered out of
ebay messages now and the most innocent words will trigger ebay to refuse
allow a message to be sent saying it may suggest a deal outside of ebay.
Yeah, I've communicated with him successfully about the individual
purchases and other topics.
It's good to hear Al is picking up unique/unseen docs, even to CHM.
It does make me wonder who this person is. I know his name, which I
wouldn't repeat here without his permission, but not what significance
in the industry he might have had. He's got a wide variety of docs
(I've bought a lot of DEC and IBM docs as well as some for more
obscure marques like GE and Singer.) Maybe he was in sales for
multiple decades. Whoever he is, I'm glad he saved his materials.
