The OS/2 eBay report is back! Sorry for the 5-week hiatus.
Unfortunately, I'll be gone for 2 weeks in February, but hopefully
everything will be back to normal soon after I get back.

Every Monday, I'll be reporting on OS/2-related items for sale on
http://www.ebay.com and the comp.os.os2.marketplace newsgroup. Even
if you're not thinking about buying anything OS/2 related, you might
find something that catches your interest.

Ironically, during the Holiday season, the number of items available
for auction on eBay dwindles by about 50%. Everything's back to
normal now, and there's a healthy selection of OS/2-related items on
eBay and other sites.

On eBay, there are several copies of OS/2 2.x, Warp 3, Warp 4, and
Lotus applications available for sale, as well as several OS/2 books,
mostly for OS/2 2.x or Warp 3. In particular, some boxes of OS/2 2.x
come with those very rare OS/2 stickers.

This week we have: A number of foreign language Notes applications (I
can't tell from the description what's really being sold - these
items are a great example of how NOT to write descriptions); Stacker
for OS/2 and DOS; two MPEG fixpack installation guides and disks for
IBM Thinkpads; and a "rare" [sic] copy of GammaTech Utilities.

For collectors, we have: an OS/2 floppy disk box; a springy pen; a
bumper sticker; a collection of normal stickers;

For programmers, we have: Kase:Set; Visualizer Database for OS/2;
Watcom Fortran 9.5; Gupta SQLBase server and client; and C Set++.
There are also a couple hard-to-find books, like WPS Programming and
The Art of OS/2 Warp Programming.

On Yahoo Auctions, there are a couple versions of OS/2 and some
books.

On comp.os.os2.marketplace, there is: Process Commander; Dr Solomon's
Anti-Virus; SmartSuite; OD Pro; Mesa 2; Relish; and In Charge.

Those of you looking to sell your OS/2 related stuff, I strongly
recommend you put it on eBay and post an announcement on
comp.os.os2.marketplace. If you include the word "OS/2" in the title
of your description, I'll see it and include it in the next report.

If you're looking for OS/2 items on eBay, search on the phrase
("OS/2",OS2), including the parentheses.
