[Boatanchors] Pile of Unbuilt Heathkit ham gear for sale

[J. Forster]

Frankly, I don't see the attraction of unbuilt kits.

For me, the fun was in building them. But, once built, most of the value
disappears.

>>Hello fellow Heath-nuts.
>>The time has come to let my unbuilt Heathkit collection of many years
>>go to a new home. First I am going to offer a package deal in hopes
>>there is someone as crazy as I am out there - take away this entire
>>lot for $18,000. That's a whole lot of money, but I paid a lot for
>>them and many of these are one-of-a-kind, the last unbuilt kit of its
>>type left in the world.
>>
>>I was hoping that I'd be able to leave these to a museum some day,
>>but I can't afford to do that. Feel free to pass this message along to
>>Joe Walsh or Bob Heil or whoever else might want to make a really cool
>>donation to the Smithsonian or AWA Museum.
>>
>>You can build a complete 1960's station - Mohawk, Apache, Marauder,
>>Warrior, Chippewa, Monitor Scope, and Scanalyzer - and still have a
>>couple of DX-100 kits to build in your spare time.
>>
>>I prefer that you come look it over and haul it away, but I'll deliver
>>the whole truckload anywhere within an 8 hour driving distance of
>>Chapel Hill NC.
>>
>>I am offering this as a package deal only for some period of time. I
>>will NOT price or sell individual items until after I'm sure someone
>>won't take it all. Feel free to e-mail offers on individual items, but
>>I'm not gonna respond until after I am really sure there is no one
>>wanting the whole pile. Act now, limited time offer!
>>
>>cheers,
