It's a bunch of random computer parts and components that maybe somebody can use for their vintage projects that I am clearing out of my storage unit. It's free shipping to the lower 48.

My favorite caption for the photo wins the mystery box. One entry per member. Ends at 9pm Eastern time tomorrow night (10/11/2019).

Happy taunting, I mean haunting! Mwahahahaha...

You’ve got questions, we’ve got Cuphead.

This captures the mood for me and that poor, poor customer at Radio Shack is going to get more than they bargained for. Congrats!

Also, for anyone who likes to collect Dell gear, I have this Dell issued DVD. Has two free commercial games on it (Demolition Racer & Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus) along with Dell's attempt to sell games through Greenleaf Technologies. Interesting part of history though. Other hardware vendors also used this so called "The Big Wig DVD Keeper" DVD to promote games digitally. Anyway, it's in mint condition if anyone would like this just PM me.
