[Milsurplus] Is "Big/Heavy" Mil-Radio Dead?

[Hubert Miller]

Hey Bruce, do you have an employee who will work for chickenfeed, so you can afford to pay him to spend the hours packing up a 
big, dense, odd sized, with sensitive gizmos on one face equipment ? If you do, maybe I can rent him.

I drove yesterday from north of Seattle home to coastal Oregon.  Along the way I had arranged handoffs to five people. One was an
actual equipment sale; the others were giveaways. It's just not worth $35 or $50 even to spend hours carefully packing something
that will not bring substantially more. BTW, the PE-110 and RA-63 I offered, did not have to die after all : I gave them to a vehicle 
and weapons collector person.

>Transportation costs are becoming aweful. However, I have seem too many boatanchors go to scrap because the seller insisted on a price that when combined with shipping was intolerable.  There are too many people who would rather scrap something than  sell it for a small price to make the total with shipping acceptable.  Is it really better to demand $200 plus shipping and end up scrapping it and getting little or nothing, or selling it to an eager buyer for $35, who will then have to spend far more than that to get it shipped?
