[Boatanchors] NEW estate list - more coming I'm sure

[George Babits]

Packing and shipping heavy gear is a LOT of work.  I know because I've been 
selling off years of accumulated gear that I will never get to.  You have to 
price it on the lower end of "reasonable,"  and be willing to pack it.  I 
don't want my XYL to have to deal with this.  It is so much work that the 
simplest route is the landfill.  That is especially true of parts like 
transformers.  Taking things to the "UPS Store" and having them pack it is 
prohibitively expensive unless something is really valuable.

Having said that, I still can't help myself from picking up mor bargains.

73,
George
