old stuff in boxes, the beginning of a new hobby

This displays the orderless mess which can be so misleading to any non-collector. Where to start! This is a very small handfull of the huge collection of synthesizer stuff which my uncle used in his bizar projects.. now to pick up the pieces

Until you post some descriptions and/or pictures you are unlikely to get taken seriously. We get people from time to time say they have stuff then just disappear, sometimes with peoples money, so a lot of us have grown cautious or skeptical.

you may be surprised at some of the help you will get once you provide details/pics

At least some white chips in the pic

Ok thanks debs Ill do my best. I've spent sooo much time trying to get concrete info about this stuff and have had a few frustrating periods that nearlyl led to bringing the stuff to the scrapyard. I can somehow understand those who have little or no knowledge on the subject just fade away. But I don't want to fade away. Ok. The stuff. Hundreds of semiconductors from the 70's. A fair amount of goldcaps.mostly white but also quite a few grey. Seen quite a lot of es stuff and signatures..a lot is loose but also on boards. Not all production-by far. Examples..which follow may not be worth much..but theres much more to come.....1) portugal 8227AB LM324N 2)CA324E RCA H345 3) 042 TD80124DP 4)CA324G RCA 906

The photo you've provided comes aside with your words.

I can clearly see a Slot 1 board with a Slotket in it and a socket 3/5/7 board to the right from it. And believe me, they're definitely not from the 70s.

So start from several clear photos with separated stuff - CPUs for the CPU guys, computer MoBo for MoBo guys. And unsorted stuff from the 70s as you claim.

Put the whole lot on a color scanner and post the photos. The guys here wil tell you what you have and you will get an honest opinion on the value too.

Ok the list will come soon along with photos.. I just keep getting stuck trying to group them.. At the same time it also fascinates me and i see it as a learning opportunity. It isnt my intention to mislead- its all new to me and maybe I got too excited. I shall return as soon as possible with my findings presented a bit properly.
Eager to learn and share in turn.
