$500
SOLD!

Available December 21
1991 Toyota Camry LE V6 sedan.
160,000 miles
Automatic transmission, power steering, power windows, power locks,
cruise control, AC/heat, power
driver seat.
JVC SH99, detatchable face MP3/CD player.
Oil changed every
5000 miles.
$2215 private party value according to kbb.com based on my assessment
of 'fair' condition.
$2400 "Average Retail" value according to
NADA Guides. $1575 "Low Retail"
according to the same.
UPDATE: Turns out after getting a thorough pre-sales inspection
that this car will need a fair amount of work
before too long. It's leaking oil from the engine (but not enough to require
adding oil between oil changes), and that is getting on
the timing belt. The CV boots need some work soon. A few other things.
Drives great now, but will need a fair amount of work to keep running
this well long term. Note that the MP3/CD stereo alone, which I installed,
is $199 retail, so that's basically only $300 for the car! Or just think of
it as like 20 days of rental car and you get to keep the car when you're done!

Compaq iPaq 3135
- iPaq main unit (battery dead)
- $70 Vaja leather case (this one, but in black leather).
- USB docking cradle
- Extra USB sync cable
- AC power adapter
- Compact flash sleeve
- About a billion screen protectors
- Original manuals and software.
The iPaq 3135 has the standard 206MHz processor, but a black and white screen.
It is the B&W version of the
iPaq 3600 series.
This is a nice deal if you already have an iPaq 31xx, 36xx, or 37xx, which
use the same connetors, docks, and have the same form factor for the case.
Here are more tech specs for the 3135.
The down side: the battery is dead on this iPaq.
I called HP tech support
and replacing the battery is going to cost $130 if you send it to them.
However, it seems to be
something
you could replace yourself for about $49 if you buy a kit,
or buy a
different kit, and
if you don't mind getting your hands dirty a bit.

Viewsonic PT770 Professional 17" Monitor. Here are some
specs.
It's a Trinitron-like aperture grille monitor, so vertically flat,
horizontally slightly curved. Good brightness. Magazines
were reviewing this monitor highly when I bought it. I honestly
can't remember what I paid for it new but I remember quite vividly
having to convince my wife that it was worth it to spend extra on the
monitor because you can keep a monitor through several computer
upgrades. And sure enough that's exactly what I did. But
now I'm planning to buy a flat panel when I get to Japan rather than
lug 30 lbs of lead over there.

SIIG PCMCIA Dual FireWire card.
Use FireWire devices on any laptop that has a PCMCIA slot! That means
you can use Apple (FireWire) iPods, and video camcorders, among other
things. (I bought it to use one of the original iPods with my PC before
there was an official PC-iPod.) A $50 value!
Image shows a slightly different model from the one I'm selling, but
the link points to the correct item. The one I have uses a dongle rather
than built-in ports.

Bell ultra cool "Vertigo Pro" bike helmet.
Feel like you're biking really high up and you're afraid of heights.
Medium size. Sticker on box says $39.99. I think actually never wore
this on a ride. I bought this snazzy new helmet, and paid to get our
bikes fixed up so my wife and I could ride together, and then found
out my wife doesn't like to ride bikes. Wha? I was stunned. Who doesn't
like to ride bikes?

ever used this.

Fancy purse.
Looks like some sort of Thai pattern to me. Made of leather. Except
the pattern part, which is made of thread. Convenient carrying strap
fits over most shoulders. Doesn't look to have been used at all.

Parcheesi, the classic board game.
Apparently this is "a backgammon game of India". And "gold seal
edition". Hopefully, no actual gold seals were injured in the making.
But you never know, back in 1964 that sort of thing might have been
considered OK. These 1964 editions sometimes sell for $30 on eBay.

"Pit" the Frenzied Trading Game
Check out the horn-rims on pops! The box is from about 1973, dating
based on others for sale on eBay, but there's a bonus! A second set
of Pit cards are in the box, which appear to be from 1964 or so. No
rules booklet, but I'm sure you can find them online
somewhere.

Wabbit Wampage adventure board game.
Cartoon madness! Adult Strategy!, or so the box proclaims.
This is a profoundly silly game for 2-4 players based loosely on the
antics of Looney Tunes characters. The Wabbits are getting mad, and
they're trying to take over Farmer Brown's fields. Order an ACME jet
pack to help your Wabbits zip around faster, or mail order some
dynamite to lay siege to Farmer Brown's dog house. I have played this
game far more times than I care to admit. It's very amusing. Up
to three folks can play Wabbit tribes, and one player is Farmer
Brown.

The computer desk partially pictured above.
I purchased it new in 2002 after searching around for just the right
desk. Pull-out keyboard tray. The whole thing is on
wheels. And there's a little bracket on the side that you can put
your PC tower into. Combined with the wheels, it makes it very
easy to get at the back side of your PC for plugging things in and
popping open the case, etc. This desk has been proven capable of
producing Ph.D. quality material!
