Clearing out the attic - again, stuff going to ebay, ask for anything Legacy or Vintage

I need the space , most all of it has to go. I'l keep about some of the vintage for my personal collection.

I have already hauled away all the twitchy or broken Macs. What remains are working or basically a few untested parts.

Pricing will follow what has been paid on ebay. Trades can be priced using the same method to try and keep things fair. I prefer to trade for stuff I need, but will take money if I have to. I need some copies of Mac os to complete my set.

Here is the link to my ebay stuff, my user name there is hectoro_grande

http://www.ebay.ca/sch/hectoro_grande/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3686

So far I have listed the 6500, 6400, 8500, PowerBook 180, PC compatibility card for pci macs, bookendz docking station for G3 and some interesting odd ball stuff.

Will be listing stuff all weekend, starting with the rest of the computers mostly 680x0 some ppc 601 etc.

Of interest is the 12/640 printer duplexing unit and Color One scanner with sheet feeder. cables, monitors, parts, ram, IIgs software, ppc software, 68k software will go last.

Re: Clearing out the attic - again, stuff going to ebay, ask ...

I added the 680x0 stuff and will put up the 601 ppc this week plus the G3 powerbooks . Fixed a pismo with a bad power in connector, loading up 10.4 on it now. 512 ram, 30 gb HD. dvd, wow I miss those bad boys.

What to do about the boxes of cable and ram? scsi cables and terminators, floppy disks software. All the software for that matter.

Can anyone suggest what to do with all the pieces parts. Should I just leave them up on ebay as buy it now individually ? sell off as lots ?

Re: Clearing out the attic - again, stuff going to ebay, ask ...

Depends on the time you've got. The 'best' way to sell is usually individual items, at a good buy it now price, but you often sit on it for awhile. The easiest way to sell is big lots, but since you have a few items that are essentially the same, selling as a big lot usually will end up with you being disappointed with the selling price since many of your items are very similar, unless possibly you make a big lot of compatible items, example take your best mac, put the scanner, printer, monitor, etc, and fill it with all the upgrades, software, cables, etc it can handle, and sell it as a great collectors piece. You might be able to include a laptop with accessories in the mix, but putting too much unrelated, or too many of the same item together often brings down the price... At least that's my experience. Most people who are willing to pay much only want one of something.
