Nice to see a Model II image in that article. I perused the auction. Nothing too special except a few Model I/III/4s, apparently some in "unused " condition. I believe this auction is pickup only for those types of items. The biggest prize is the bust of Charles Tandy! That would have a prominent place in my house if not for my significant other.

At the top it says “Radio Shack Auction #1” so I wonder if there might be more coming. The unused machines are nice, but I would have liked to have seen prototype items. Maybe they just didn’t keep any of those over the years.
