[FS] IBM vintage 3-ring binders
« on: Sat, 03 May 2014, 12:36:48 »
I have these 3-ring binders from IBM for sale. All are in "very good used" condition.

There are 2 blue, 2 beige, and 1 black one with slightly different logo (no lines). The beige and blue pairs are matching 2" and 1-3/4" and the black one is 1".

Problem is, it will cost at least $6-8 to ship even one, since they are bulky, and and maybe $12-14 for all, more to the West Coast.

$30 including shipping for the lot, or somebody make me some offers for all or part. The matching pairs would be nice, and the beige ones have front and spine sleeves to accommodate the "36" cards as shown which will go with the large beige one.

Thanks, Harry

If I don't get responses in the next couple of days, I will decide on a price for here or ebay.

heyo, I'm interested in them all. do they smell funny? old binders tend to smell funny but I like my binders smelling only the freshest.

this is, sadly, a serious question.

They do not smell funny. My nose is old and my sense of smell is not what it used to be, but these have little or no smell. You may get something if you put your nose directly against it.

But certainly not that greasy plasticky smell that I assume you are talking about, that you notice from across the room.

Send me a PM with your address, I assume that you are domestic US, otherwise shipping will be considerably more.
