Did you ever get rid of the software you listed above? I'd love to but everything you have, but unfortunatly I have way to many vintage Macs as it is and simply don't have the room. However, I do collect vintage software, espcially Applications, but games as well. I'm interested in the software you said you had above. I live in Nicholasville, KY (ZIP: 40356) so shipping wouldn't be too bad for the software. I have had people from all over the country ship me large boxes of software using USPS Media Mail. This service is for Books, Magazines, and Software, etc. only - and it is very cheap.
Here's what I'm interested in: - Macintosh Bible Fifth Edition - Graphics Works - Couple of independently-produced software compilations (dosn't matter what they are, as long as they are not demos or shareware!) - Ancient Art of War at Sea - Darwin's Dilemma - Balance of Power: 1990 Edition - Sim Earth I would definatly want all the boxes, manuals, etc. that came with this software. I could also use the origional System disks for system 6 (and utilities). Shipping all this wouldn't cost $5.00 with Media Mail (I've received a 5.00lb package via Media Mail that cost $7.50 to ship, your stuff wouldn't weight over 2lb at the most). Now I realize it would take a little of your time to package it, although it dosn't need to be expertly packed, so I was thinking that about $10.00, via PayPal if you have it, would be fair for this. Let me know if this is acceptable, if so, give me your PayPal address (or mail address if you need money order) and I'll send you the money. Thanks for your time, hope this is agreeable. - Dylan Marsh On Sat, Dec 27, 2008 at 8:00 PM, Jeff Skinner <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello vintage Mac fans!
