Holy Geezz! $4000.00 USD for an 8E cpu only? *sigh*
I'd love to put up an ebay ad for me 8E, pristine in a rack with RK05, TU56,
PC04, and TU10. Of course I'd never sell it.... but I'm curious what it'd go
for :)
Unbelievable.

Yup, I was going to say roughly $1500, if you're looking for ebay
standards.

Subject: value of PDP8e
I acquired a PDP8e (sn M40000521)as part of a
trade, which has not yet
been
completed.
Anyone know what value such a unit might have? It's got a blue bezel
instead of the usual orange, but it on a 19 slide enclosure. Does this
make
it
an 'industrial' ? I'm not looking to sell it (maybe after the deal is
settled) but
I'd like to know how to valuate it. I did see some pristine, working
units
on epay - the top one going for 2300$USD in a
silly bid war. But a
realistic
price may be more like 1500$USD, I'm told. The machine is in 'new'
shape
and working, has the tty interface card and cabling. core ( dunno how
much).
Thanks to all who reply,
Heinz
