I don't think that my prices were THAT bad! We
made a lot of people
happy, got rid of a few boxes of old class handout reprints from Dr.
Dobbs, and found homes for a few items (PCJrs, Portfolio, etc.). At the
end of the day, I sold my entire remaining stock that I had brought down
to a colleague who is starting a collection (OSI, N*'s, Compupro, etc) for
a preset price. He still owes me one more pizza.
No, I didn't talk about yours. In fact, this is a real example how
VCF may perform a good trade of for all - while in the exhibition
are had a display of the Little Board (and it's designer for futher
information) I found one, NOS, including all documentation among
your goodies -and at a real reasonable price.
Isn't that a success story ?
