I have two Qume, 8 inch floppy drives that were sent to the facteory to be refurbished and haven't been used since their return. By the time I got them back the customer decided to go a different route and I've been storing them ever since.
Anyway I've stored them long enough and am thinking of selling them but I have no idea of their value.
If anyone out there has an idea of what these things are worth I'd appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks, |

If I remember correctly I believe I've had them since '83 or '84. Since posting here I've found a couple of places that have used ones for sale taken from working systems for around $350.
I figure mine should be worth a little more since they were refurbished at the factory and haven't been used since.
We'll see ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Old 8" drives value depend on the density, quad density or higher are worth the most. I sold a very poor pair of 1.6mb 8" floppy drives in an old array for a TI for $100, not sure what you could get in good shape, never know unless you try. |
