Fellow nerds. A neighbour has an exceptional talent for retrieving retro tech from skips, flea markets, car boot sales, house clearances etc., for resale. But strong as his gut instincts are for what might be worth something to a collector, he's not particularly tech-savvy. He's just vibing it based on nostalgia.
If I were to give him a list of prize items to look out for if they're in good condition, what would you suggest should be on it?
Please share for reach!
