I prefer local pickup, as I don't want any damage to befall on them.
I'm located in the Silicon Valley, in California.

"$100 or better offer" for an ELC and IPX without floppy, some assorted
CDs and cables, and a Sun watch? You're kidding, right?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^--- for the brain you seem to carry, I don't
understand what part of "or better offer" is eluding you.

As for the items, they are in clean, fine working condition, not
common for most ELCs out there, and any collector would value that
quite a bit. Heck, just the 13w3 cable itself, an original SUN 13w3,
alone is worth $10-20 (w/ s&h) from a quick glance at eBay. Also on
eBay you can find IPCs that sold for $20-25, and even $50+, but with a
big unknown question mark as to their functionality ("as is" for
parts), and with keyboards with missing keys and who knows what gunk
and dirt on them, etc. The stuff I'm selling is in much better shape
and known condition. I've also done the Lithium battery hacks on them
so one doesn't have to spend the insane 2x$20+ for replacing the old
battery/RTC chips.

Lastly, just because you've been collecting Suns for the last 15 years
doesn't mean everyone got a chance to grab'em for free when companies
were hoarding out their old gear, and also doesn't mean they can find
them so easily either. If you got'em already and for much cheaper, go
gloat in your own little corner and be happy you got such a deal, and
stop reading any further.
