Most 16 bit ISA cards are still plentiful, everybody who has been using a PC
since the late 80's or later has some. The cards that were rare back then
are still rare now (the extremely high end gear of any generation has some
residual collector value).
Besides a few old modems (no idea why I haven't tossed them yet) I have
nothing for 8 bit pc cards. Anybody who has an extra 8 bit scsi card that
has IRQ relocatable to 2 via jumpers, short length card, has external scsi
port, and don't want it let me know. I want to rig an scsi card to the plus
connector on my Tandy 1000hx to use external scsi hd's.
I think while some people might want a card or 2 nobody wants a boxload of
somebody else's gear just to get 1 part they need (shipping wouldn't make it
worth it).
