Someone emailed me (a non-collector) with a list of
DEC boards
and they want to know if they have any monetary value. I'm not
up on many dec boards, particularly XNNN type numbers. So I was
hoping people here could tell me if any of the below are
particularly sought after. I suspect the guy will want
to part with them, likely all at once rather than piecemeal.
Let me know!
Most of the Mxxx cards you mentioned are fairly generic. The Axxx
and Wxxx stuff looks more interesting. None of it is anything
I particularly need (looks like the non-generic stuff is more -11
than -8).
I suspect you could get a few dollars each for them one at a
time on ePay, or rather less as a lot. My own ePay rule of
thumb is about $5 each for an Mxxx flip-chip module spare. If
it is something I specifically need, I'll pay more. Gxxx and
other modules are often specific to a particular device, so I
am willing to pay more (assuming it's a device relevant to my
collection).
This works out well because there is usually someone else willing
to pay a little more, and I already have a fair number of spares :-).
