Many parts from different times, from BS to Propeller (chips, boards, manuals, accesories,·etc). Most of them still boxed.
Only to Spanish residents. Sorry.

Interested? Post an email to my private email address or·my Parallax forum·address.

Shipping costs charged to *buyer*.·Be warned that I only work with·SEUR.

    Offer closed!
    It may be interesting to note that no one here has sent an email requesting the material.
    I has been posted for 24H on this Parallax site without anyone being interested. Amazing.

    I suppose there are not many Spanish residents in this forum.

    Perhaps you should have made your offer en Espa

    Well, did you mean only residents of Spain or any Latin country, including Portugese speaking Latin America and Portugal?

    Or did you mean only Spanish speaking countries? Cuba qualifies, but Aruba or Jamaica do not.

    I thought it was a quite generous offer, but a bit unclear about who you wanted to reach. I am not being silly, there are a lot of BasicStamp users in South America that don't have a lot of cash.

    There is a Parallax Espanol Yahoogroup:
    http://espanol.groups.yahoo.com/group/ParallaxenEspanol/

    It shows 11 new members in the last 7 days so apparently
    it has quite a lot of activity.

    regards peter

    I meant residents·of SPAIN, -European Union-.

    I have placed an add on a free newspaper here in my city. I·think pickup is better than shipping·because there are lots of·parts that is better to see (and I don't like to make parcels!). In this case·I am·asking for a small money amount to prevent someone with no idea of what Parallax is to·ask for the stuff.

    I would prefer someone who loves Parallax stuff.

    May be a bad joke but I have to say it anyway.

    Imagine a parcel full of electronics parts, wires, timers, chips going thru the US custom.freaked.gif

    inaki, you're offer is very generous, is there not a local school, club or other worthy cause local to you that may benefit?

    Or imagine taking a·transcontinental·flight and·checking a couple of·big plastic cases full of robots, and stashing some random Parallax hardware in·your carry-on.··We always have an assortment of TSA tags in the baggage when we arrive, and I always keep a Parallax catalog handy in my carry-on in case of questions.· Funny thing is, I got pulled aside at security last time, not for the hardware but because I had a·forgotten bottle of spring water in the bottom of my carry-on bag.

    I can depict the Quadcrawler being activated by a shake of the plane. I imagine those 'parkinson' motions due to low battery, the creature coming out from the parcel and slowly walking to the cockpit...

    To be continued....

    The last time I dumped my electronic accumulation, I gave it to the eletronics shop teacher at the high school I graduated from [noparse][[/noparse]decades after my graduation]. He was quite pleased even though I filled his car with junk.

    Not many people give things the students really want to play with - like a S100 computer with various cards including video and disk drive, a CPM computer, lots of Z80 and 8086 chips, several good power supplies, odd ball robotic motors, two funky oscilloscopes and a 50AMP 12volt NiCad battery.

    Some of it would really be handy now, but what the heck.
