Knowing the location would definitely help, since these systems are very heavy and fragile, local pickup would be much safer than shipping. I've received H89s, where the CRT mounts broke, and the monitor was loose in the case. The earliest H89 CRT mounts are horrible. Heath later enhanced the CRT mounts, I'm guessing since they had very high failure rates even back in the 80s. Now that the material is going on 40 years old, I'm sure they are even more fragile.

Eric, and anyone else interested in old 8-bit heathkit computers, you should check out the SEBHC(Society of Eight-Bit Heathkit Computerists) mail list. I didn't come up with the name, but I am the current owner/moderator of the list. You can see all past posts here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/sebhc and if it is something you are interested in feel free to send a request to join, or even just follow the publicly available archive.
