FS/T: huge lot of clamshell parts

[techound1]

I've decided to get out of the clam biz and am clearing out my huge inventory of parts.

If it's not color-specific I probably have it - shoot me a PM.
Optical drives: 4 CDROMs with tangerine bezels; 3 CDROMs without bezels
Keyboard: one tangerine and it's missing a couple of keys
Case parts (anything with color): some tangerine, some blue, some graphite - send me a PM.
LCD: One screen/harness assembly that showed a few vertical lines - not sure if it's the lcd or the harness.
Two boards in the low range (233 or 300) untested (I don't have enough parts to test them....).

Make an offer. Be reasonable and I'll take it. Happy to trade for ibook G4 parts and will trade the whole lot for something close to dirt (I want to get rid of it!)

There were no 233 mHz Clamshells that I know of...

I know I'm not the OP, but from my guess I think he does. He has a logic board, casing, keyboard, optical drive, and screen. All that's missing is a hard drive and AC adapter. Just my $.02

As 2011 said, I *should* but... the two boards are untested so I'm wary of making that claim if they're not any good. If you want to trade for the whole lot and it turns out they're not, clamshell boards are going for only $30 (or less!) on ebay.

2011 is also correct that there are no chargers or batteries. I may have a couple of 3gb hds I could include if you want to make a project out of it.

If I get a clamshell from kondspi then I may be interested in a logic board and optical drive.

How about I mail you a box full of dirt with a cupfull of pebbles tossed in, for enough parts for one clamshell, and both logic boards? :)


Seriously though, how much cash are you looking for? I think it'd be fun to try and put my own clamshell together :) I can get a harddrive somewhere, somehow, I'm sure, and I can run linux on it or osmething. A power suppy should be found somewhere on ebay with some work too. So please, pm me and let me know what you are looking for cash wise for enough parts for one computer. Depending on my mood, I might think about it :) Thanks!

I sent you a pm about your case parts, techound1. :)

[techound1]

PMed you both.

I'm looking for $100 plus shipping for the lot, minus the graphite part that MacTCP is looking for (if he/she wants it), and plus shipping by the method of your choice. You can easily make one machine, and then make your money back just by selling off the cd drives you don't use. Plus have parts to spare as a base for other projects. Me? I'm happy to see the parts get used.

[techound1]

Parts shipping to MacTCP as I type this. Anyone else want anything before it goes to the great fleabay in the sky?

When you say

Case parts (anything with color)

does that mean ONLY parts with color?


I may be interested if you have a full casing.

All of the four major case parts on a clamshell have color on them.
