Massive qty's VMS Condists available

I have, in some big piles here, a couple sets of every VAX/VMS
CD-ROM Condist from 1991 or so to the present day. In many cases
there are three or four identical copies.

I also have a lot of Ultrix (VAX + MIPS) condists up through 1998
or whenever they stopped issuing them. There are some copies of the
Y2K kits too.

These are mostly "Software Product Library" and "Documentation" sets,
so they're largely layered products, but some of them have bootable
install kits too.

I want to get these kits to hobbyists (is there a Ultrix hobbyist
license? Of course there's a VMS one) in as widespread a manner as
possible. It'd be easy for me to dump the whole big pile on one guy,
but that's not the most efficient way to distribute them, as he'd
just be in the same situation that I'm currently in.

I'd prefer to not be distributing copies; I want to get the original
condists out to folks who want them and will actually use them.

Any suggestions as to how to do this in a way that's fair to both me
and the recipient? I don't want to E-bay them, but I also don't want
to foot the bill myself for shipping out hundreds of these kits.

Tim.
