Argh. I need to move to the west coast. I'm in the DC area, and have been
[sporadically] looking for an 11/70 for ages.
I didn't think I was ever going to find one, when one day (surprise!) there
was a lot of seven of them available. My bid of $3500 was barely sufficient,
and I've spent over $700 to transport them to storage and $480/month to store
store them until I find homes for the extras.
So I've got extras out here in California, but they ain't cheap.
