Ryan, If you can't find anyone to take everything, then contact me... you know
I have the truck and the space to hold onto it till the shows can fire up again
to offer it to everyone who wants pieces...Just don't throw it away or worse
-let the locker people auction it off! I'm working 7days a week since
pandemic started, so contact me by phone in the evenings.

Although I think each of us would love to have a shot at the pieces we each
individually want, if you have someone who’ll buy the whole lot, for your
sanity, I’d go with that option! 😊

Wow I got an overwhelming response to this post... It looks like
pictures would be helpful. I will have to find some website to upload
the small handful of photos I have and post a link here late tonight.
I am working right now and will be busy until at least 9:00 PM.
I'm not sure how to handle multiple people asking for the same pieces..
there is also someone considering buying everything!

I kept my vintage computer collection in a storage locker while living
in an apartment. Last year I bought a house and moved everything I
can into my basement. There is no more room so I've decided to let go
of the pieces that don't fit within the focus of my collection as well
as duplicates of what I have already. Much of it used to be part of
Dave Dunfield's collection. If someone were to take everything, you'd
need a UHAUL trailer or a van. The storage locker is in Newmarket.
There's some Commodore stuff... mostly things like joysticks, floppy
disks, power supplies, one Commodore PC etc. There is Atari stuff,
lots of TRS-80 stuff, COLECOVISION Adam stuff, many S-100 cards, many
manuals, an old Tektronix calculator, Heathkit computer, Osborne
Vixen, Franklin Ace 100 and 1000, Intel development computer (for chip
design), Superbrain S100 computer with 8-inch floppy drives, etc.
Everything must go. I want to stop paying for the storage locker and
hope to save this stuff from the landfill by finding new homes for
them ASAP. If you or anyone you know might be interested in something
(or everything!), please contact me off list: ryan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I have SOME photos that I can send. Let me know what you are
interested in. I need to drive almost an hour to get to the locker so
I'd prefer to just meet someone instead of going just to take more
pictures and inventory. If you can give some cash for the lot, that
would be appreciated, but really I just need it gone and I'm not
looking to make a lot of money from it.
I also have some other machines that I will be selling on Kijiji or
eBay. If someone is interested, let me know before I post them:
- Commodore 64C computer, 1802 monitor, 1541C floppy drive. All in
original boxes, have not tested.
- Commodore PET 8032. I think it worked last time I tried
- Commodore PET 2001-8, different tape drive installed, not mounted.
Tape drive doesn't work, might have other issues
- Commodore desk for the VIC20/C64. It is missing the round C64
sticker on the drawer.
- Apple Macintosh IIci with colour monitor, keyboard, mouse, manuals,
original boxes. Working last time I tried them.
- Apple Macintosh LCII with colour monitor, keyboard, mouse, manuals,
printer. No boxes. Working last time I tried them.
- Apple IIe, two versions (with and without numeric keypad). Both
yellowed, unknown condition
- Apple II+, unknown condition
- Apple II colour monitor
I am willing to trade for a very nice working Commodore 64 with
complete original box in very good condition (including all
literature, plastic bags, etc.) That's the condition I expect for the
majority of my collection.
