But if you have to use a Pack and Ship company, they will charge a lot. I got a bid to ship three audio patch panels and they wanted over $300. Heavy items will be very expensive to ship.</div><div><br></div><div>Inspection is necessary since the VTR you want may not have any boards inside! Or may not be in working condition. Nothing is warranted or guaranteed.</div><div><br></div><div>It's disappointing that the auctioneer will sometimes put like items in a lot. While they won't sell individual extension cords, they sometimes put 10 speakers in a lot when you only want to buy one pair. 15-18% buyers premium.</div><div><br></div><div>But it sure looks like a huge auction. 870 lots, including a Rolls Royce.<br><div apple-content-edited="true">

Auction Equipment Catalogs</a> </div>

<div>Roscor bit the dust and there are a number of video tape machines that will
be offered. There are Betacam, DVC Pro, even Digital Betacam. Also
even U-matic. There are a lot of waveform monitors, test equipment,
cameras, etc. Some of the items are still new in the original boxes that
were to be used in systems that were to be built.</div>

<div>Auction scheduled for April 24.</div>
