  The time has come to get rid of everything in my storage
space.  I want to get rid of everything by the end of the
month.  Only a few of the items below have prices associated
with them, almost everything else will go for whatever offers
I get (though I'm tempted to hold onto some of the vacuum
equipment if I don't get reasonable offers).  Everything is
as-is unless noted otherwise.  I haven't gotten around to
using most of this stuff..

  So, here's the deal.  If you see something you like let me
know what it's worth to you.  If you'd like to buy most of the
lot for a price I might be game.  Almost everything is out 
Westboro MA at the Ustor at 495&9 at 3 Research Dr.  I can make
it out there pretty much any day in the afternoon or perhaps
evening.
