Nobody asked me for my eBay ID. I haven't sold anything, but according to eBay, I've bought 34 items. My id is mister_mau. According eBay I've been a member for 15 years. My first post says "I can post actual photos of mine if anyone's interested." I WILL grant that it may have been a logical assumption that this group would be at least interested. Yay Internet.

Thanks for the feedback. Look, guys...I'm reaching out to this specific community because of your specific interests. Because I've had similar interest in the past (and currently), and figured you'd want the chance to keep this thing out of the landfill. This forum exists so you guys can find each other, and ALSO so others can find you. Here I am. I don't feel like expending a bunch of energy on this thing. This is why I didn't put it on eBay. I came here on the chance of finding someone who'd say "Hell, I'll give you $20 bucks for it Just send me a photo of so I know you at least have SOMETHING." I'm already a bit frustrated at the sheer number of words I've expended on it. I threw out that I'm in Atlanta just because meeting someone here would keep anyone from having to pay shipping. I could stick the thing in my car and meet someone at a Starbucks or something. There's a marketplace on this forum where people buy and sell stuff everyday! With no ebay listings and no feedback. I just didn't see any TIs in there, so I came directly here. The point is, if anyone has a sliver of interest, please speak up because I don't think this thing has ever been plugged in! Otherwise, it goes in the trash. If I wanted to swindle someone, I'd honestly be doing things a LITTLE differently. Am I getting crickets really because I didn't use eBay? It's just not worth the trouble to me. I just remembered my cousin sells plenty of stuff on ebay. If you guys don't take it, I GUARANTEE you WILL see it on eBay soon.

Excuse me for jumping to conclusions! I don't have any expectations on price. The eBay listing just had good photos and I was being lazy. Make me an offer. I live in Atlanta if that makes it easier for anyone. -yb

Ah. I see. Everybody with the popcorn while a few others fuel up their flamethrowers? I've been part of enough forums to know I have no interest in that. Thanks, but a simple "No, we don't operate like that. Stick with eBay." would suffice just as well. Have a collectively nice life, All!

Hello all. I don't really feel like creating an ebay posting, but is anyone here interested in purchasing a unit just like the one in this eBay posting? My box just isn't as shiny! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Texas-Instruments-TI-99-4a-Computer-System-NIB-New-Sealed-NOS-/331876019361?hash=item4d455a2ca1:g:gmwAAOSwc3ZUpcPU The box is not sealed, but there's plastic over everything, and things appear appear untouched. No scams or anything. I picked it up years ago because of nostalgia when a friend had a death in his family, and it has sat ever since. Advance apologies if it's inappropriate to post this here! I can post actual photos of mine if anyone's interested. Thanks! -yb
