Well, I need the money, and I've got a bunch of random things which I'm looking to get rid of, so, uh, here's a list!
RAM:
Samsung 64MB PC66 RAM SO-DIMM - great for a Powerbook G3, works fine $8 shipped
Working Hard Drives:
3 x 420MB Quantum Trailblazer Hard Drive - passed tests in Disk Utility $15 for all 3 shipped
Miscellaneous:
DVD-ROM from Powerbook Ti - I don't know if this still works. It wouldn't read DVD's at times, and so I replaced it with a new DVD drive that I had. $10 shipped
Beige G3 Parts:
(note: I parted this G3 out a while back and put it into storage. It worked fine when I put it away, but I haven't tested any of the parts since except for the video card and the USB card - which both worked great)
PCI USB Card (2 ports) $8 shipped
There are some photos below, and I'll take more later. Please keep in mind that I also have a fully functional B&W G3 for sale in this thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=211297) as well.
Thanks!

The ATI Rage 128 is 16MB. :confused:

It shows up as 32MB. I remember we bought this after getting the Beige G3 so that we could play Quake II, which it ran great. Pretty sure this wasn't a BTO option.

There was NOT a 32mb MAC version of the Rage 128, and therefore could not have been a bto option. There WAS however, a 32mb windblows version........

Look, I'm 100% sure that this isn't a flashed PC version, if that's what you're trying to imply. My dad bought this card years ago to use in his Beige 300Mhz to play Quake from MacMall or the like. Trust me, there's no way that he flashed it, since I remember having to install the dang thing.
I'll try to find some more info on this card, since there seems to be so much doubt, sheesh.

Okay, ATI released the Nexus128 card with 32MB of VRAM on it, and it looks just like the card I have:
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/Graphics/rage128info.html
In face, from that page:
"Quake3: If you want to run max texture quality in Quake3, ATI says you'll need a card with more than 16MB of RAM. That means the Nexus128 card."
Which is I what happened to us, and why we bought the dang thing. Hmm, I thought it was with Quake II, but I guess it was III. We have both those games still.
I hope this helps.

Huummm, after some more diggin around, it is NOT a Rage128, but instead a Nexus128, which was built on a nearly, but not quite identical chipset as the Rage......Thats why it shows up in SP as a Rage128 :p Mystery solved!

One more thing, I got this MacBook Pro poster on campus a few weeks ago, and it's just sitting here. So, if anyone wants it, I'll do $12 shipped:
