Just for something to look at, as I guess none of you guys will be coming over to collect this.

I would pick it up if you lived a whole lot closer. Why are you getting rid of all this?

Wow is that a huge load of stuff.
I wonder what you will get for it all.
Best of luck.

I am selling it, as it is spare stuff I need to shift. The books, I've had for 5 years, and have been basically using them as sound proofing, in a bookcase against my neighbours wall, as I have louds speakers.

The NHL 96 games need no explanation.

The hardware is all spares, except the BBC Master, which I don't wanna mess about with anymore.  Nearly all of the hardware came out of the shelves under my display cabinet. I want those shelves clearted, to store more calculators on.

This lot has hardly put a dent in my collection. In fact, I've never considered it part of my collection, with a couple of minor exceptions. It's just stuff I keep putting off selling, or sorting out.

£142 it sold for. With listing fees and final value fees deducted, that's about  Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£114.

£114 isn't a fantastic result at all, but it's by no means a disaster. It's more than I expected to get from a carboot sale, which is where this stuff was going to be sold originally.

So, could have been a lot better - "satisfactory" sums it up. And the winning bidder has good feedbck with no negs, and I'm confident he will pay up. Much better than a non-paying bidder, running the price up.
