Roy Carlson is the seller. I recently purchased a service device for DASD, and Storage Directors, which reads 8" floppies, which was much more in line with collector prices. The prices he is asking for the drek is in line with curio and display junk listings, not for vintage computer groups. That market will pay a lot just for punch cards, and such, just to frame and hang on the wall. He has a nice set of Telex manuals at the end of the listing which I hope maybe Al Kossow gets for Bitsavers, as an example of how the vintage and old computer stuff he sells is. He is just trying to clear out the end result of a repair and refurb business, he is as far as I know, not one of the gold scrap assassins, but is actually very knowlegable about the systems, etc. I rated my transaction for the tester, and then before that for a 3420 test stunt box to be excellent. BTW, he has a lot of 3420 parts he hasn't listed and may be forced to dump if there are 3420 owners out there. Light bulbs and plastic tubing, and cables and belts don't sell well for curios, they look just about like the ones on fans and cars... Jim Gary Green wrote:
