!!!   S E C O N D   T I M E    A R O U N D !!!

I have the following items for sale:

                                                   regular price
   Microsoft word (new version)        $250.00     $450.00
   Lotus 1-2-3 (old version)           $225.00     $495.00
   Breakthru 286 accelerator board     $300.00     $395.00
   PC Paintbrush                        $75.00     $139.00


The software is still shrinkwrapped and has never been used.  These
are packages that were given to me as presents by relatives who did
not realize that I had sold my computer.  
 
The Breakthru board comes with a copy of LIGHTNING and the Microsoft
Word comes with a copy of READY

I want to get rid of this stuff ASAP so I will also take B/O.

Just looking in the first catalog I grabbed, I think I may know why
this stuff may not be moving.  
Even if they are still shrinkwrapped they are still '2nd' hand. Also
the 'real' costs (mail order) on MicroS Word is: $219.50 (incl. shipping),
and Lotus 123 is: $279 (new vers), even if ready is free (should be $46.75),
The question is: Why not by new?
