[Heathkit] Heathkits - NEW - Unbuilt]

Maybe this will give us an excellent example of how Supply-Demand
economics works. There can only be so many collectors, with deep pockets,
who want to just sit on the stuff. 
AND if ...
1) It's true (I'm old enough to remember many "WWII Jeep in a crate"
stories out there)
2) They don't take the DeBeers "supply marketing" tact
3) If it's from the last years, maybe it's all computer kits, etc

This is to let anyone who is interested, that I represent a gentleman who

acquired Heathkit's entire inventory when they went out of business in
the 
mid 80's. He has 4,000 unbuilt, factory sealed, Heathkits sitting in a 
warehouse here in Toledo, Ohio that need to be sorted-out and
inventoried. 
Most of these will be put up for sale. Some he intends on keeping for his

personal collection. This task should be accomplished, hopefully, by 
mid-September. If anyone is looking for anything specifically, please 
contact me with model numbers and I will be in touch. All items will be 
priced in accordance with the "Heathkit Bluebook" at: 
http://www.d8apro.com/bluebook.htm as new and "virgin" kits. See note at 
the bottom of the page.

Thanks..
Garry
