Cleaning up the cellar ...

I have two motherboards with CPU here. When they were given to me I was told they are working, but I've never tried them out, so no guarantees.

1st: Intel "Alfredo" Socket 2 + Pentium Overdrive
2nd: Intel "Venus" board VS440FX + Pentium Pro

Offered for postage+packaging plus a little bit to buy me some candies.
Please note: I have no Paypal.

I would like these. Please let me know how much you want including delivery to Australia. What form of payment do you take?

3rd in line, but only interested in the VS440FX, depending on shipping cost to Canada. Unlike my VS440FX, yours has the onboard USB ports. Without Paypal, though, how do we pay? Using AVICC's chip pay? Bitcoin? Bank draft drawn on euros and mailed? Or wire transfer?

The weight of the two boards in their antistatic bags is 1460 g. So it might work that I can stay just below 2 kg. According to https://www.dhl.de/de/privatkunden/pakete-versenden/weltweit-versenden/paeckchen.html this could go as international small parcel size M, which would be 16 €. Insurance and tracking is an additional 4 €. But if I cross the 2 kg, then it gets really expensive: Canada 39 €, Australia 47 €.
I will pack the boards and see if I can really stay below 2 kg, to make sure.
Payment: The cheapest way is to find someone helpful within SEPA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Euro_Payments_Area) that has a Paypal account that relays the money to me via bank transfer. Another option would be Western Union. An international cheque or money order via banks is ridiculously expensive. I once payed someone in Australia 100 AU$ which was about 70 DM back then and had to pay 70 DM in bank fees, and it took weeks to process.
cuttingedgecs: You were first, so if you agree with the shipping costs (hopefully 16+4 = 20 €) and find a way of payment, I will send it to you.

cuttingedgecs: I can help with the bank transfer if you want. I'm in the Netherlands so I can pay via SEPA.

Paysend, xe.com and TransferWise all offer low cost international bank transfers.

Sounds good.
mtx500: Just let me know the final cost when you can, and give me your bank account details via PM and I'll get this done ASAP.
cvandijk: Thanks for your generous offer. I think your bill for my Jul/Aug sale came to just under 20 €, so this will probably result in me sending you a small amount and we can both save some Paypal fees. Just let me know via PM how much extra you want me to throw in for your trouble.

mtx500: please let me know the total for delivery to cuttingedgecs and your SEPA details and I will transfer the money to you

cuttingedgecs: if I have the total you can pay me the difference, I don't want any extras or cash.

ph4nt0m, feipoa, sorry, but cuttingedgecs was first, and the boards are now on their way to australia.
cvandijk: Thank you for offering your help
