Mo’s IBM PS/2 Collection

 

 


For quite some time I have been the privileged owner of quite some PS/s kit.  I was then able to take over some of it from my then employer (IBM indeed).  I had always planned to build an extensive LAN – or even computing grid – from these fine machines.

 

Over the years there are several arguments why I sort of lost interest to execute these plans.  A shift of interest, lack of time, lack of space, the limited amount of performance/function (and don’t rule out the WAF-factor) have made me decide to sell of my complete collection to whomever is interested.  I would like to sell them off in one sale – no separate machines/parts.

 

All of the machines work.  Some of them even fully, the others only require an OS to be installed to function. Needless to say they are accompanied by matching keyboard, mouse and monitor (a choice of 8503, 8515 or 8514 models).

 

The collection is also accompanied with several (separate) cards (IBM Token Ring, Portmaster adapters, SIMMs, cables, harddrives (SCSI), etc), packaged in a box.

IBM PS/2 - 9557-0BG

IBM PS/2 - 9577-ITG

IBM PS/2 - 9577-SND

IBM PS/2 - 9585-0NG

IBM PS/2 - 9595-AHF

 

Back in the 1990’s, this collection of PS/2-machines was worth some US$ 36,518.-.  As I realise there has been some depreciation and loss of value over the years, I would suspect the collection to raise maybe ˝ % of that - €185.-, but this is only an indication and I am open to any offer.  

 

I live close to Amsterdam in the Netherlands and am willing to bring the entire collection to anywhere within the BeNeLux area and Germany (up to 400km from the Dutch border) – hoping I can fit the collection in my lease-car.  Shipping would most probably mean craze P&P cost, so I wouldn’t recommend this (though I am willing to ship worldwide at the cost of the buyer).

 

Drop me an e-mail and make me an offer – thanks!
