I have 4 recyclers now in TX who will save old things for me. They won't
save everything, so I have to email them lists.
I can put as much as I want on the lists, since their software will flag
anything that comes in that matches my want to buy list.
Please note that since these will be coming from R2 certified recycle
centers, all parts must stay in the US.
They will not be tested for the most part, but will be power on tested for
whole units. They do not test individual floppies, etc.
So my request is, please send me lists of what you want, and what you are
willing to pay, including shipping, and I will see if I can save some oldies
but goldies from the crushers. If you want software, please specify the
format (CD, size of diskette, etc.) and if it is version specific.

Wow, Cindy, that's great.
For me, non-PC keyboards are important - pre-ADB "Classic Mac"
keyboards (like the one I bought from you already) or Amiga,
especially Amiga 1000, keyboards in particular. I'm big into
Commodore, so anything pre-C-64 is also interesting (PETs, VIC-20s,
disk drives, some printers)... and I know I'm not alone there, so even
if I pass, these are popular items that someone will want. Old
external disk drives (single-sided Mac and any Amiga) are also useful
and interesting.

I have the Apple II floppy drives, single and dual, any use there?
I will pass your list on.

For me, no. I have a pretty good stack of those already. it's the
19-pin Mac drives that I could use a couple of. I had one long ago,
but the drive mech died then a friend lost the cable from it that I
loaned him, etc., etc.
A 128K Mac with only an internal drive is a sad thing. :-/
I will pass your list on.
Thanks!
It's unlikely because they were unpopular, but a specific Amiga I'm
casually looking for is the CDTV - the one in the black "audio
component" case. It's essentially an Amiga 500 with CD-ROM that looks
like a VCR or stereo receiver. I had one that was stolen (fully paid
for by insurance) but that I never actually replaced. I have a CD32
hooked up at home right now, but the CDTV is an interesting footnote
in Commodore's history.
If you didn't spot the Commodore logo, you probably wouldn't notice it
was a computer if you saw it in a stack of stuff.

I have two if the CDTV units along with a mouse, external 3.5 drive,
controllers, and some game CD's. Still looking for one of the black
monitors sold with it.

I'm still looking for a set of keys and coils for the A2000 keyboard :o(
(they are cheaper to ship than the complete keyboard. Shipping from UK is CHEAPER than
from US now that USPS raised prices...)

I could use some AUI to ethernet transceivers. I have difficulty finding
them cheaply for some reason.
Sync-on-green or SGI monitors would be nice too if they're not absurdly
expensive to ship and are reasonably priced.

I would be interested in baby AT cases with power supplies, depending on
what they looked like.

I'm always on the lookout for a Durango Systems "Poppy" PC. It's been
many years since I've seen one.

I collect terminals in general, but that's a rather large net to cast. One terminal I
have been looking for specifically for quite some time is the Ann Arbor Ambassador.
I'd love to find one of those.

Hi Cindy:
Decided to send this to the mail list instead of direct on the chance
someone on the list might have or know of the things I am looking for. I am
looking for and will pay for transportation and a reasonable fee on
Memorex 1270 Terminal Control Unit (used on IBM mainframes as an alternative
to 270x TCUs
Memorex 620 (2311-11 equivalent), 630 (2311 equivalent), 660 (2314
equivalent) or 3660 (2314 equivalent) disk drives or the DEC OEM versions,
the RP01, RP02 or RPR02 disk drive.
Tom
