IMHO there have been some really fun conversations spun off of such posts,
whether of the nature of "What the h*ll is that?", or "What moron would
charge that much for that?", or even "Ah, I remember" I agree that the
volume is low enough and the entertainment value high enough to leave
things

Yes, we do. I had not found this ad and it is in Kansas City, where I
have a warehouse.
Cindy, I didn't see the 8" floppies though. I also thought this was in
Colorado, but see it listed as KC now, though that may only be another
auction. This unfortunately isn't up my alley for collecting.

Apparently the buyer backed out, and the entire lot is now available as ONE
