I would like to see these discs getting into some good hands ASAP. The
first reasonable offer will take them. Offers of postage only will be
cheerfully ignored, since I did have to pay for them as well as dig them
out of a bin.

I made a second trip to the thrift store today, and seriously rifled
through all the shelves, racks, and bins remotely in the same area as the
floppy discs I found yesterday. Without even a further loss of blood I
turned up five more plastic bags of Cromemco floppies, and left little I
hope behind. Here is what I have in total.

The following are all original Cromemco floppies with matching sleeves.

I've tried to get everything correct, but what you get is what you get.
About half the last group don't have sleeves, and a few of the labels have
that oily look to them, but in general all the floppies look pretty good.
The first group looking very good all with write protect tabs on the
floppies. Any questions please email me directly unless it is of merit to
the whole list.
