How much are you paying?

Why don't you simply but them on ebay?
There are lies, damned lies, statistics - and ADC/DAC specs.

All depends on what the transistor is...some are worth a few bucks each, and some a few cents...Im fair.  :-+

I do buy quite a few on Ebay

Will be at the parents house in a week or two. I think that I left there some of the Soviet germanium transistors, low and high power, though most of them have gone in the trash 10 years ago. I had to have some of the Japanese but I don't think any of them left. Can give them away if you pay for shipping. Approximately 2.5 EUR for  <100g and 4.5 EUR for <200g worldwide.

Found here some new (Made in 1975) and used germanium high frequency flying dishes like on the pictures. Have some funny looking soviet diodes too.

Awesome! Just let me know. I am interested in LED's/Diodes too. I really just like old semiconductors. Let me know what you fin an Ill glaly pay for shipping.  :-+

As I thought most of the germanium parts are gone. What I found on the picture. Some germanium stuff as well as weird looking silicon stuff. The oldest part I've noticed is a silicon diode diode made in 1964.
I'm going on a business trip today evening, so will be able to ship this stuff only next week.

Hmm, I've got some...
TS1323
86X1 (or 1X98..)
TS1619
TS161 (or T5161..)
etc.

Seems to be generic TO-5 PNP, 30V symmetrical (alloy junction perhaps?), couple mA, 50mW, < 1MHz.  Pulled from an electronic organ (of the tone divider type -- 6 x 6CG7 master oscillators for the highest octave, followed by two-transistor flip-flops for the twelve notes each of all the lower octaves).

Great! Let me know what it costs to ship. I can put these to good use.  :-+

Hey Tim. Might be interested, any idea in how many you have/what you want?

Thanks!

Uh, 20 ish?  What would you pay?

I'd guess they aren't worth much more than postage, which is fine.
