Any interest in used floppy disks?

I estimate I have about 100 hundred or more 3.5" Double Density diskettes that I no longer need. They also come with storage cases. I imagine they won't go for much, but if someone out there is just now getting into .adf files and wants to put them on real media, they might have some value.

Thanks for the info!

Not sure yet. I still need to sift through the stuff and make sure there isn't anything I really want to keep. Perhaps I can send you some photos later as well.

How much? I'm in FL.

Was planning on picking up some HD floppies to see how badly they worked.

I've heard stories about using those return envelopes. I hadn't thought about returning floppies. heh heh.

I use them typically for anti-credit card solicitation replies - you can ram about 6-8 of them in the typical CC reply envelope, tape it shut and voila - you pay back the man for the junk mail.

I have so many backup floppies around from some BBS computers I obtained several years ago - they came with those and after having endured the tedious work of copying ALL of them to another Amiga's hd, they aren't of much use any more.

another alternative is to send them to GreenDisk, which recycles them (but you have to pay for it).  I still may do that with at least a couple boxes of them someday, but we get about 2-6 CC applications every other week, so Capitol One - bite me!
