 |
|
Due to health issues, it is with sadness to say that I will no longer be collecting and I have decided to sell off my collection that has been amassed over many years, some of which may be considered rare / very uncommon. The collection includes a large selection of CPUs, ICs & boards.
Most of my items will be sold on eBay. There should be some group buy possibilities and individual auctions for some of the more uncommon items. Don't hesitate to make inquiries. Regards

My deepest thoughts.

Cutting to the chase, are you going to wait John's comeback for shipments outside of the US? |

Thanks... don't know if I'll have the luxury to wait for John's comeback.
I am sure other arrangements can be made.

It was a big surprise for me. Definitely makes one re-think priorities in one's life. It happened fast, too fast

Tim, hold on!
You are really one of the best collector. You were lucky to amass great collection of precious things.
Hope very much you will be lucky to overcome it.

No... I could almost understand by reading the topic.
So sad to hear and hope you will get better.
About offers and buying your chips... I feel split. On one hand, i do not want to make profit or a good deal by you being ill, but on the other hand, we might help you with your funding.
Hope you get better!

Thank You to everyone for the kind words and well wishes.
Returned home today and am exhausted. Hopefully I can get some real rest. Almost impossible to rest / sleep at the hospital.
