used 3.5" DSDD floppies for sale

[jconger]

I mentioned them in my 5.25" disks for sale thread. I have 150 DSDD used, and I have packaged them into 6 grocery bags of 25 each.

A quick check of one bag shows it weighs 1 lb 3 oz. With packaging, that's under 2 lb, so $2.77 at media rate. If these go in small lots, I'll have to charge something for boxes because I'm going to need to buy some.

Editing in a PS: I had a question about their capacity. These are "720 Kb" in the MS-DOS world, and as I understand it, for some systems like keyboards that use MS-DOS format disks. Macs and Apple //gs systems format these using GCR and get 800 Kb. Some of these are Apple format, some PC. You can just re-format either format for the other if you need to.

I've had several people interested but no one offering a price. How about this... I was offered $10 per 25 of the "unused" DSDD 5.25" disks and I suggested $5 per 25 for the used. I'll be happy with the same price for these, but if they go 25 at a time, I need something to cover boxes and the PayPal fee (or pay by check).

If you just want 25, the cost would be:

$5 for the 25
$1 for PayPal (or pay by check)
$1 for a box
$2.77 shipping
=====
$9.77 total

Order more, get a better deal because I won't have to get any boxes and PayPal won't be as bad. Pay by check if you want.

I have sold 100 of the 150. If someone wants the remaining 50, it would cost:

$10 for the 50
$1 for the box
$3.16 for media rate (2-9 days, I'll pay for delivery confirmation)
=====
$14.16
