Thanks Matt – and if you find any legitimate copies for sale at $600, maybe you could give the guy MY number, because at that price, I'm buying! When I said that I would take offers, $600 isn't quite what I had in mind. Good luck finding what you're after. Doug.

Doug, don't listen to any of these wise guys <g>. They are worth at least what you're asking, or within $100 – $200 of that. Hold out for somebody serious and try your local papers. We have one in LA,Ca called the Recycler for free ads to buy,sell, swap almost anything and I know someone who got $1800 for 3ds2, no problem, and might have got more. Keep looking and good luck. Martin

DOUG RITCEY: I'LL OFFER YOU $1700 FOR 3DS2. THANKS

Thanks Antonio – that's in the range that I'm interested in. I' I'm on a drill job in the field all week, but I'd like to talk to you when I get back to Toronto on Monday. I'll e-mail you then, or if you want, you can email me your phone number. Or you can call me; my numbers are 416-847-0065 (at work), or 416-897-0212 (at home). Cheers, Doug Ritcey

Thanks for the advice Martin – actually, I came up with the figure of $2000 after seeing packages sell between $1800 and $2200 – I thought $2k would be a happy medium. Thanks also for the info about the Recycler – I'll check it out. Living in Toronto, the extent of my exposure to L.A. activities is pretty much limited to reruns of Beverly Hills 90210. I understand that you're somewhat familiar with my new system – let me know if you need some rendering time on it, and I can run some files for you when I get it set up. Maybe this way its loss won't leave too much of a void in your life! Cheers, Doug.

Doug, So you are the guy who bought Mark Brandt's system. That's great! I will miss the potential use of it and especially the diaquest card which Mark had been lending to me on a long term basis. I'll have to find an alternative to the diaquest or just have other folks lay stuff to tape for me when the need arises. If a really large project comes along I hope to purchase a decent vtr or even a Sony LVR3000 (recordable laser disk). Have fun with the new system. Martin

Sorry Martin – Mark said you might nobe too pleased about losing it! I've got Acad & 3DS already – hence the reason for the want ads. I guess the next step is to figure out a way of scrounging up cash for a VTR to go with all this fancy equipment; you won't be the only one thinking about that kind of investment. doug.
