  Rare chips? On a SWTPC board? What, pray tell, could these 'rare and 
valuable' chips be? ACIA's? The only way *any* of this stuff could be
'rare and valuable' is if they are the only ones that haven't found their 
way to an ashcan. 
  I would have problems adding this stuff to the Ritchie Home for Obsolete
Computing if it was *given* to me, much less buying it. Good luck - maybe
someone from portal will buy it from you. This stuff is overpriced by 1 to
2 orders of magnitude.
