Fwd: [Coco] Van Load of COCO Stuff
I hate to bother folks and impose on good graces, but I do hate to see stuff get dumped, even if it's not a biggest of iron. Is there any chance someone nearby this location is feeling particularly generous and might consider grabbing these items? I have a couple folks near the area who can store, and I hoping to attend VFC-E and could drive my larger vehicle to pick the items up at that time.

I have piles and piles of COCO stuff including monitors, computers, disks, manuals, peripherals, etc and could nearly fill a large van with it. Long story short...I have no time to sell anything g or ship it here or there as I currently live in Charleston already (started a franchised coffee shop) and will be moving my family down after we close on our house sale next week. I DO NOT want all this stuff lost to history and looking for someone who would haul it away fir the good of the community. Would be a great haul for Glenside for use in an upcoming COCOFest auction as well. Reach out to tjseagrove at yahoo dot com if you would like to haul this away.

Are you going to be at the swap tomorrow? If so let’s talk. I live near Albany and I’d love to help, but it depends on just how big a pile it really is. I’m planning on coming to VCF-East but if it’s more than fits in a medium-size station wagon, I won’t be able to move it all. -- Jameel Akari

I'd love to help as well and will be at swap meet tomorrow. However, I'm from VA so unless we could pick it up this weekend I don't think I could come back up in May... -----Original Message----- From: vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic-bounces@lists.vcfed.org> On Behalf Of Jameel Akari via vcf-midatlantic Sent: Friday, April 23, 2021 9:58 PM To: vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> Cc: Jameel Akari <jakari@bithose.com> Subject: Re: [vcf-midatlantic] Fwd: [Coco] Van Load of COCO Stuff Are you going to be at the swap tomorrow?

Sadly, I (and GCCC) are in the Midwest (Iowa, for me), so I will not be at tomorrow's swap meet. But, I can probably swing by anywhere in the mid-Eastern states around VCF-E timeframe to pick the stuff up, if I can find a way to get it from this person's location to a storage spot. But, hands to help load and unload are probably the most concerning at present. Jim -- RETRO Innovations, Contemporary Gear for Classic Systems www.go4retro.com store.go4retro.com
