I'm moving in about two weeks, and during the last few moves, I have been shuffling things back and forth. I have a bunch of techy stuff lying around in boxes, but most of it doesn't currently work. I suspect bad batteries or chargers, so I haven't been able to bring myself to just throw it away. At the same time, I don't want or have the ability to spend hundreds of dollars to ship this stuff off without knowing if it can even be repaired or is worth it.
Braille Lite 40, Braille Lite 18, really old braille 'n speak English/Spanish, the old disk drives for Freedom Scientific products, a box with Duxberry that I probably got in the late 90's, etc.
What do you guys think? Toss it, recommendations for places to sell it as is, or should I hang onto it and try to have it fixed?
Thanks for any suggestions!

um, see what fits with what, try charging etc, and see what is bust or is just in need of repair, then see if can sell if not in good nick, but also be honest about condition when selling. hth.

I might be interested in the Braille and Speak if it can be fixed or if it just needs a new battery. Please let me know.

Most of it should be able to be repaired, but I'd say have a look at all of it first, then you can let people know exactly what condition it is in if you do decide to try and sell it.

If you can, find a person/people who are in need, and give some of these things away.
