Do you have an idea of how much you want to get for this? Working PETs
are going from "cart it away" to $100, depending on urgency and exact
model and what the seller thinks the traffic will bear. To put it
into perspective, I bought several PETs a few years back for $9 each.
I am trying to arrange shipping for a 4016 for $35, and someone in
Madison, WI has a PET w/printer and disk for $50 (pickup). I am a collector,
not a reseller. I will not be offering this on e-Overpay. My first
computer was a PET and I don't have a working 2001 anymore. :-( I do
have the remnants of a C= dealer; I have parts and schematics. Your PET
would be repaired if at all possible, not scrapped. I would like to
give it a good home, but not go broke trying to do so. Please give me
an idea of your price range.

I'm in Ohio (43202). Pre-pay or COD is fine with me, as long as know the
shipping up front (I got burned on an SX-64 because the guy took it to
Mailboxes, Etc. Shipping was 50% more than the price of the unit!).
