We are considering having a swapmeet and sale of some surplus sets from the museum on October 3. Would you attend? Would you bring items for sale?

Tempting..... but I just couldn't drive the distance. I'd have to fly, and confine any purchases to items I could pack and ship or check with the airline. First world problems.

On the fence. I have some gear that could go, mostly broadcast/post stuff, but need to gauge interest. Std-def video patchbays (with cables if you buy them all), 2x ADC audio patch bays, small 70s production switcher (4 or 5 RU self-contained) with documentation, several Panasonic 7750 SVHS machines in reasonable working order/climate controlled storage, and a 16x16 Knox router, (composite analog/stereo balanced audio). Other similar doo-dads, plus three matching 5.5' racks in gray/brushed aluminum trim. Or, three matching 7' racks in black, with sides and doors for back.
All racks fully adjustable front/back rails, on casters. Decent, office-quality paint, and not rusty.

But before I load up all this stuff for a look-see, I need to gauge interest and evaluate pricing, of course. It's mostly infrastructure stuff, rather than rare, collectible sets. Don't know if it would be a draw, or a joke.

If this needs to be moved to Dollars and Sense, feel free to do so, or I'll migrate it via cut/paste. Just trying to gauge the labor vs. return equation.

I'm local, and have a trailer that will haul all. But the stuff isn't going to get into and out of the trailer by itself... :(

Interest from the museum proper would get first dibs.
