Everything is for trade, too, and feel free to make offers.
What I'm looking for:
Non R/C stuff
-A better soldering iron
-Assorted speakers and speaker parts
-Stereo equipment, working or not (I'm learning how refurbish old stereo equipment - it beats working at burger king!),
-A good video card - 7600GT or better
-A Core2duo processor and compatible motherboard
NOTE: Pictures suck because I have no money for a better camera.
R/C gear:
-A plantraco transmitter
-A plantraco servo reciever
-Some very small (under four gram) servos
-A lightened reciever of less than three grams.
-An airplane set up with actuators for a JMP reiciever - I'm fed up with building, and just want to fly something.
-A cheap heli.
So, for sale is:
Also availible are assorted computers of varying ages, most not listed. Ask for details.
Computers:
The Office Box: Dual monitors at a low, low price!
PIII-733
16gb hard drive
CD burner
384mb RAM
AGP ATI Rage128/16mb as primary video card
Nvidia TNT2/16mb as secondary video card
Floppy drive.
This is my "office system on a budget" project I bodged together for fun. Although not exactly a speed demon, I had it working beautifully under Mepis Linux (not that I'm good enough with Linux to actually use it) before the hard drive went kaput - both screens can be kept at 1280x1024 at 16 bit color without any slowdown at all, and let met tell you, a second monitor makes life much, much easier! A replacement hard drive was installed, and now that I'm getting a new machine, this one is for sale.
$100 or best offer.
The Music and Video Machine: Why pay big bucks for a Squeezebox, anyway?
Specs:
PIII 933mhz
384mb RAM
20gb hard drive
SoundBlaster Live! soundcard
DVD-ROM drive
Video card with TV output.
This is a HTPC without the ability to record TV. It does an excellent job with audio, which is why I built it, and can be controlled using a TV, but that's not to say that you can't play back video on it as well. This makes a great "second" PC for the den - play Pac-Man and Galaga under MAME, listen to music through the SoundBlaster's 5.1 and S/PDIF audio outputs, or watch your favorite episodes of Cowboy Bebop, wether off a DVD or another PC in the house.
This PC is yet unbuilt, but I have all the parts in a box, and they all work.
$120, or $150 with an upgrade to an 80gb hard drive.
Computer Stuff:
2x 512mb sticks of PC2700 SO-DIMM (laptop) DDR memory. $40 each, or $75 for both.

1x 256mb module of HP PC133 SDRAM. $25.
(PENDING)
Assorted 128mb modules of SDRAM. $10 each.
80GB Western Digital 7200rpm/2mb hard drive, has not been used too much. I bought this as a factory-pull from a server which was promptly upgraded after being bought - WD drives often last for years, and when I got it, it was'nt more than a few months old. $40.
2x Nvidia TNT2 PCI video cards. These work great for adding a second monitor - though they only have 16mb of memory, it's plenty for running spreadsheets or Mozilla on a second monitor. (I ran a monitor at 1280x1024 without noticeable lag.) $15 each.
2x Pentium 4 processors, 1.8ghz/256kb cache/400mhzfsb/socket 478. $20 each.
Home theater / projector stuff:
Stripped LCD, complete with all parts. 15", 1024x768, BenQ panel removed from Dell LCD monitor. This was a major pain in the **** to get out, and only afterwards did I realize that I have no place to actually use the stupid thing. $150.
SharpVision XG-690u digital projector - great for home theater and computer use. 800x600 (SVGA) resolution native, has S-video, RCA, and VGA video inputs. Worked great with my old VCR playing Run Lola Run - contrast was decent even on a beige wall. Includes carrying case and remote. $350 + you pay shipping.

1 KLH center-channel speaker. $20.
Sherwood 6105 reciever. This is in near-mint condition - I don't think they were used much past twenty watts per channel, nowhere near the maximum of 100 watts per channel into 5 channels, or 500 watts total. It's a very nice reciever, in very good condition. $150.

(It's the one on the bottom - the CD player and DVD player are not really for sale, though I suppose I'd accept a suitably generous offer. No, I did not use it with things stacked on it.)
Stereo/MP3/audio stuff:
1 Yamaha CDC-60 "Natural Sound" 5-disc CD player. Universal remote is included. $50.
http://img235.imageshack.us/img235/9131/imag0036dz5.th.jpg (http://img235.imageshack.us/my.php?image=imag0036dz5.jpg)
1 Fisher 5-disc CD player. It's a cartridge-load design, and very odd - however, it works, and while it's not exactly top-of-the-line, it would make for a great garage stereo component. $30.
1x SanDisk Sansa Mp3 players, 512mb. New In Box - technically, refurbished, but they're in the boxes. $35.
(one sold!)
http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/4941/imag0027yg4.th.jpg (http://img128.imageshack.us/my.php?image=imag0027yg4.jpg)
MCS 3245 reciever, with matching EQ. Works great, and beats anything else you'll get for the price - a while back, I did a clean-up of the potentiometers, switches, and jacks. (I've yet to test the phono stage, though - I've never used it!) $75 for the set.
DIY stuff:
4 REALLY BIG power transformers. Each has two secondaries - 48 volts center-tapped at 7 amps, and 14 volts center-tapped at 3 amps. The rated voltages are on 220v - cut the voltage in half for 110v usage. Great for hot-wire cutters. $20 each.
