Found this odd listing, Tektronix scope garage sale

I was browsing the app so couldn't copy and paste the link, just screenshot the 1st pic. May be interesting for a collector.

Here's a link:

I might almost be willing to pay that just to have it delivered to/picked up by a local good cause like one of those "after school hobby shops".
But there's too much management involved in doing that from the European mainland and I'm insane busy. (as you can see by the fact I have time to look and post here...  )

I've seen that before - a few weeks ago.

Still going, then.

THIS IS A BUY-IT-NOW GARAGE CLEARANCE SALE FOR $75 EACH
OSCILLOSCOPES OFFERED ARE 465, 465/DM4X, 465B, 465B/DM4X
468, 475, 475/DM4X, 475A, 475A/DM4X, BUYERS CHOICE

NO RETURN RIGHTS ARE OFFERED, ALL SALES ARE FINAL

I WILL NOT GUARANTEE ALL KNOBS WILL BE PRESENT
EARLY BUYERS WILL GET THE BEST LOOKING OSCILLOSCOPES

ALL OSCILLOSCOPES ARE SOLD AS-IS,
NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE IS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED

By far not a great deal IMHO.

Edit: this is not making it any better:

I have a large number of Tektronix 465, 465B, 468, 475 and 475A scopes that mostly came from the now defunct Hughes Aircraft
factory here in Southern California. I know that I will never get around to refurbishing these magnificent instruments
like they should be. So, I am offering them on eBay at less than I paid for them. They may have cracked or missing knobs,
cracked or missing feet, missing hub caps, in need of paint, with original gummy labels and in need of calibration.
If you are lucky, there will be a trace visible but this is not guaranteed.

Ah, here I thought this guy just needed the room and wanted $75~$150 to remove the lot.
Noh. Rather buy 5 new Rigols to donate then.

Not my stuff, just found the link. Thought someone might want it for parts/ etc.

[Brumby]

... or refurbishment.

Buy 5 and get one of your choice for free!


For someone who can drive there, it might be worth the trip.

I love older Tek stuff, if someone wants to chip in, I'll message him and try to get a deal on the whole lot and split it. I went up to NY this summer and bought a big lot, I'd be fine with driving out to Cali and grabbing this one too. Just an idea.

He's been advertising on Craigslist here in L.A. for about 6 weeks.  The listing below has his phone number if you want to check out what he has (and avoid eBay!)
