[comp.sys.next] Cheap source of SCSI drives found.

fausett@aivax.radc.af.mil (Mark L. Fausett) (02/05/91)

I found a company in Santa Barbara which appears to be a Bankruptcy liquidator
specializing in Hard Drives.  They sell bare drives (and I mean bare - the
drive I just bought didn't even have the SCSI termination 8-pin SIPS, or 
mounting screws).  Their prices appear to be very good though - approaching
used prices for new equipment.
They sent me a price list - I scanned it in and ran my OCR on the fax.  The OCR did a reasonable job, and I think I found most of the mistakes, but if 
something looks wrong, it probably is.  I don't know what they mean by the two
listed prices, I bought my CDC 94241-383 for the "Dealer" price of $925., and
the prices they were advertising at MacWorld matched the "Dealer" prices.
