Hello, all:
I was contacted by this chap in NW London about a boat load of classic
inventory. I've put my bid in for certain items already.
Contact Gen directly for more specifics.

Subject: Re: Computer collection
Hi Rich
Thanks for your reply. I've included a complete list here in case there is
anything at all you're interested in...
As I said before, I have a substantial collection of 'antique' computers,
mostly 'first editions' of systems such as Apple, IBM, Sirius, Apricot,
Macintosh, Epson, etc. These are not old and used, they are mostly in
pristine condition in their original boxes with manuals, software and
literature. The only reason I'm selling is that I have to move house and
will not have enough room any more.
If you are interested please let me know. I am open to offers for the whole
collection but, realistically, I expect people will be more interested in
one or several individual items. In that case I'll probably hang on to some
things.
Please make me an offer on any items you are interested in . You would need
to collect or pay for carriage from NW London (UK).
Please also pass this on to anyone else who may be interested.
Thank you.
It's a long list, you have been warned!....

I belong to a group of collectors with people all over the world,
and I know a few in the UK.
If you could send be a brief inventory of what you have
(manufacturer, model and quantity) I can pass that on to the other list
members. No need to list software titles; just list computers and
accessories/add-on items.
Thanks.

Hi there
I got your email address from the internet.
I have a substantial UK collection of 'antique' computers, mostly 'first
editions' of systems such as Apple, IBM, Sirius, Apricot, Macintosh,
Epson,
etc. These are not old and used, they are in pristine
condition in their
original boxes with manuals, software & literature. Would you know of
anyone
interested in buying it? I am based in the UK.
