Always fun to see what's on sale of OS2 stuff on eBay and while I didn't really collected any OS2 related stuff I do still have a few things left which I consider putting up for sale at eBay just allow a fair chance to get it. Got some old unused t-shirts, IBM Pink Panther wrist watch, etc. Remember 15 years when I put up a big ass OS2 flag on eBay which sold for far more than I ever expected.

But, in general the retro tech prices has gone up over the last couple of years and special during last year; guess that people needs to have small projects when society in general is locked down  :) While I don't collect OS2, I've been over the last year more into Dragon 32/64, TRS-80, C64, C128, A1000 and A500 including that I've also fixed up some of my old Thinkpad X system.

Hi Kim

If you need some space and you want to some of your OS/2 stuff to get a home, go ahead an put it on ebay.

I usually want everything  ;D but I don't want more stuff at home. I have enough with some OS/2 Boxes and my Def Leppard collection. I want to collect digital things now, so it does not take more space  ;D ;D

Just in case I asked for more hints to the seller and he does not know about OS/2. But he told me that the
tape library was removed from a government facility on Long Island.

Hi

It feels like there is pride and some story behind this, but I we may never know.

Hello

FYI: It is the first time I saw this "OS/2 2.0 Worldwide announcement clock". It is expensive for what it is, but first time I see this.

Hello

Hello

I have some questions about this one. "OS/2 2.1 Special Edition" (86G1442)
- https://www.ebay.com/itm/326128036498
 
It says "For use with Windows 3.1", was the "Special Edition" after or before the "OS/2 2.1 for Windows" ?? or it is a different thing?

From https://www.os2museum.com/wp/os2-history/os2-2-1-and-2-11/, Michal says,
Code: [Select]
It’s difficult to tell from the screenshot whether it is showing OS/2 2.0 or 2.1. It’s also impossible to tell from the above screenshot that it’s actually OS/2 2.1 Special Edition, better known as OS/2 for Windows, released in October 1993.

So it seems that it is just how it was first named.
