Don't see too many complete looking BA123 boxes show up on eBay and
this one seems relatively cheap if you happen to be able to pick it up
locally in Richboro, Pennsylvania. Plus a few boxes of VMS
documentation too.

(No personal connection to, or information about, this seller)
I would grab this one myself if it was within easy driving distance.
Someone should grab it.

A nice find for someone looking to 'get into' vintage computing. The disk
should be easy to replace if necessary and documentation is plentiful.

Indeed, very nicely looked after, it even has the little door at the bottom left of the
front panel still intact, mine doesn't have that.
