Hardware For Sale/Trade

Hi guys
The Pacific Title Digital auction is tomorrow, and theres quite a bit of SGI Origin hardware in the catalog.

I want to snag a couple of items from the auction; would someone help me get it shipped from Hollywood to London in return for a sum of money?

The brochure says "(2) SGI Silicon Graphics Tero Servers"

If that means "Tezro", there might be a catch there for someone. And should that someone pick up two Tezros real cheap, remember to send me one

Too bad we didn't know about this earlier, there's more than a few of us in SoCal who probably could have (or maybe still can?) figure something out.

There's a lot of good stuff in here. The PDF lists 7 x "SGI ATLIS 350", 6 x "SGI ORIGIN 350", a Tezro (spelled correctly!) and "SGI OMEDIA PRO", and some unspecified "SILICON GRAPHICS CPU'S" and a SILICON GRAPHICS SERVER. The non-SGI stuff looks nice too, lots of Herman Miller chairs, recent Macs, and all kinds of nice displays.

If you could change the post title to indicate that its tomorrow and in LA, maybe we could find some other interested folks.

Maybe we could do one big split?

Done. I think Pac Title also have/had some Onyx3000 machines too. And lots of SGI storage.

And a lot of FC storages...man I wish they go for cheap to lucky sgi lovers.

Man, I wish I had a little more cash burning a hole in my pocket - but $500 just to get a paddle, I think I'll wuss out of this one.

You get it back if you don't buy anything. That's just to keep out the riff-raff. It's a total pita for an auctioneer when people bid on things then don't bother to pick them up (or pay for them.) Part of the deal with an auction is to clean the place out. People who bid but don't pay means the next-highest bidder also doesn't pay, the stuff is left sitting there, the auctioneer is in deep doodoo, bad bad bad. So some auctioneers charge an entry fee to make sure that flaky bidders don't eff them up. Usually if you buy something expensive and they don't know you, they'll rush over right after the hammer falls and get the money, too. No money, then they re-bid it.

So go, bigD. And I'll be in for an Origin 350 if you can pick one up for less than $250 - 300.

I registered, and I'm in England! I just got in touch with the contact at the top of the page (Heidi) and she's cool with me paying by electronic transfer. Can any Neko members go by the facility and pick up some small stuff I'm after? I'll of course cover costs etc.

fieldframe: can u check out the bid price for item 395?

So were there any great bargains to be had in the end ? I imagine sale prices wont be posted.
