[Milsurplus] B24 Stuff

[Jeff Kruth]

I also asked him about several pieces I saw. Particularly an intact APS-13 (he has several). No individual items for sale, instead, the whole lot of 150+ pieces. I asked for a price, no answer, but he did say he was in Kansas.
I figure a speculator who got an estate and maybe has stars in his eyes. For the buyer, thats a lot of stuff to fetch home from a long ways away. Especially if you do not need it all.Maybe a consortium should get together of all interested parties and negotiate collectively. I feel its probably a buyers market. I mean, really, in this day & age, with inflation going thru the roof and gas prices going back up, who has the cash to waste for things you dont need and will take forever to sell off or throw out? 75 year old stuff in unknown condition. Whoever bites the bullet should really inspect before making an offer: what if the boxes you really want are gutted/modded? "Hamified" as my old technician buddy used to say. No tubes maybe. Who knows? I guess if all you need are front panels to fill a flight deck up, it would be OK.I doubt Fair Radio would want it unless its a steal, as the market is thin and getting thinner for buyers, esp. with shipping costs so ridiculous these days. That stuff weighs a ton (several tons for that lot)  The college students I teach could care less about history and WWII equipment......J. Kruth
