[Info-vax] looking for a good home for misc parts

My wife has been after me for YEARS to clean out at least one of the three storage lockers I am renting with lots of misc Vax and Alpha parts.

Some, like RA60 disk drives, weigh a lot (as well as the actual RA60 disks), others are just controller/interface boards, as well as BA350 family disk shelves, plus a couple of Rainbows that have not been turned on for 20+ years.

Instead of just taking it all to the local dump, I would love to find a good home for my 'treasures', but don't have the budget to pay for shipping, and of course don't have any of the original boxes/cartons either.

I suppose I can list items one by one on eBay to attempt to recoup the cost of almost 20yrs of renting the storage lockers here in West Virginia, but that of course is very labor intensive.

I guess the first step might be to try to get a decent inventory so I can intelligently talk about my collection.

Thoughts?

Verne
