 Very true.  You euro-doods could make a killing on us
stupid Americans if
you started auctioning off easy to find Sinclairs, Orics and Thompsons on
Ebay.  The only obstacle to overcome would be shipping, but I'm sure a
little creative direct advertising towards us could overcome that concern. 
So what does it cost to send a standard shipping container from London
to San Francisco on a slow boat?  With a container a month, you could
stock an esoteric used computer store, bi-directionally.
