Hi Howard,
Bob Templeton forwarded your message. To tell the truth, I have
no real need for your Seagate drive but I am anxious to rid
myself of some of this stuff. The trouble is, what you're
wanting is just a bit excessive for my lack of need for the
drive plus shipping costs would have to be negotiated as I would
not be willing to foot the bill for that much stuff.
Considering the many people you have offered your drive to,
it seems you're basically fishing and hoping for a bite. I would
be happy to discuss a deal with you on a one-on-one basis once
you've heard back from all the other people if you still have it.
You can reach me in this echo.
Thanks for the interest....
