Why "Auckland of course" ?
While I live in Auckland - I'm not from here so I don't really care - but just curious about the comment.

Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 4:54 pmIn terms of the populations, a ridiculously high proportion of the vintage gear seems to come from outside Auckland, and particularly, Christchurch.
The number of auctions I've seen where the machine is in some small rural place and is RABIDLY "pickup only". What is it with that?
(The vendor of a broken IIe with anger management issues springs very recently to mind.)

'Cause it's the polar opposite end of the country to me
It's rare to find any form of vintage computers for sale even remotely locally. It's usually Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland, in that order.
