I am collecting things for a garage sale, What do you want to get rid of? It can be anything, as long as it isn't broken.
I will start it off with:
1 1987 NEC Pinwriter, 9 pin traction printer, original price $600.00 Includes reinking equipment for ribbons and misc. paper supplies. Works Fine.

Is it a cyber-sale or are you doing a real sale?

I was just pretending, but the idea would be items would be real, how could we really sell stuff here? no, I am just thinking about stuff thats been around forever and kind of like the alterego, or the word game that is going on, it shows something about you, a way to get to know people.

Complete sets of topographic maps for the states of Washington, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. That's roughly 6800 sheets of maps. Oh, and they're all rolled and alphabetized and they come with state index books.
(Isn't a mix of OCD + bipolar disorder great?!)

Ted, I had a chuckle. We've collected them for our area because we like hiking, but we're not as organized as yourself. Are you interested in trading a filing cabinet for the maps of say New Mexico?

I don't want to trade anything. I want to get rid of stuff. like:
An old, very old Artograph. Which I bought in my manic, set up a studio phase.

Susan,
I sold two sets of topo maps, ID & MT, to a guy who wanted to use them for wallpaper in his hunting cabin in MT. He told me to ship them to a bait & tackle shop in MT instead of his home in NJ so his wife wouldn't know about the purchase. :-)
Perhaps that guy is bipolar too. :-) MT + ID was about 3200+/- map sheets -- I think enough for a dozen hunting cabins (MT is a BIG state).
