All,
        apologies if this is redundant, I'm behind on reading and in digest

I have the following NeXT equipment in my basement that needs to go. I'm
looking to move the whole lot and will take $1,000, or best offer.

If you are not serious, please do not jerk me around. I've already had
three parties back out at the last second. One more time and this stuff
goes in the dumpster.

40 NeXTstations (approximately 1/2 are turbos)
34 NeXT Monochrome monitors
2 Cubes (one is missing the back cover)
3 NeXT Laser printers (Only one is confirmed to be working)
38 NeXT keyboards
30 NeXT Mice
1 NeXT Color printer
1 NeXT cdrom drive
1 Digital Eye

Note that I can't vouch for the condition or existence of hard drives in
all of these machines. Also I, recently tested the monitors for screen
brightness; approximately 20 were ok, 8 were slightly dim, 2 were
definitely dim, and 4 had some weird distortion problems.

I also have:

Lots of software (FrameMaker, WordPerfect, Lotus, DataPhile, you name it,
I probably have it)

Lots of other junk (NextWorld Magazines, NeXT manuals, NeXT coffee cup,
NeXT stickers, etc..)

Note: I will not ship any items. This is simply too much stuff to deal
with (boxing, UPS, etc..). If you want it, you have to pick it up. I am
located in Philadelphia, PA.

Anybody near Philadelphia, please respond. I'll be off-line during the
weekend, but if you are interested email me and maybe we can put together a
group buy. Even assuming some bad units, this works out on the order of
$35/NeXTStation, near complete. Questions for the seller, if you contact him
directly to save time (and please feel free to do so) would include whether
he's got the mono monitor cables available.
