FS: DSDD 5.25" NOS 10-packs

[+OLD CS1]

I have a bunch of NOS DSDD 5.25" 10-pack boxes of floppies, original boxes with original factor wrap. I am asking $5 per box plus shipping.

 

PM me if interested!

PM sent showing interest in 4 boxes.....

Thanks! Six boxes sold already. I have 20 more so still plenty remaining for others.

I'm in for one box of 10 as I could use a few new ones while playing with old C64 and Atari. Sometimes it's nice to use real floppies even though we have modern alternatives these days.

 

PM and payment sent. Thanks!

Thanks to everyone who has purchased so far. I still have 18 boxes remaining for anyone who wants some.

 

As these qualify, I am sending via USPS media mail. The pricing is less than standard First Class and has been uniform across all recipients thus far irrespective of location. I have figured out pricing on onesies and twosies:

 

One box: $2.75 (might be about a dime less when I get this to the PO.)

Two boxes: $3.12

 

I put two two-box orders out today. Rod's order will go out Monday, as will everyone else's who has not yet confirmed shipping address and payment.

 

Thanks, again! I completely agree about using the real disks. Yes, they take up more space -- almost unreasonable amount of space as you amass a collection -- but you just cannot beat the Real Thing.

That's what I was so excited about (the real disks!) I have a couple with some room on them I was using for Extended Basic projects, but I'd really like to have blank disks dedicated to it

Thanks to everyone who has purchased so far! I have 16 or so remaining for anyone who still needs some.

Hi OLD CS1, the box of disks arrived today. I remember that brand well. Thanks!

You are welcome, and thank you, again. Honestly, it only just struck me that I had not posted pictures. I suppose if I did and showed the brand it would generate a little more interest.

if anyone is on the fence, the disks are in fantastic shape. I commented that i was able to fire up the ole TI and formatted one/worked like a champ.

Here is a picture of the disks I am pushing.

I remember buying those at Costco when they built their first store in Anchorage - mid-80's I think. It's hard to imagine how expensive floppy disks seemed at the time (especially if you're a kid throwing newspapers and flipping burgers after school). They were still not cheap, but it was the first time I could buy semi-affordable disks!

I should have gone to compusa every day and gotten their box of 1.44 pc formatted disks for 19.99 with a 20$ instant rebate until they ran out.. stupidly only bought one box and im almost out of them
