Dear Thierry,

Of course, I do not intend to rip you off or anything. You are not bound to
anything.  We can just look at what I can get you, see what the shipping
costs are and agree on a total price.

I have working disk drives for you and probably even pascal software or any
case books. I have inherited a huge collection from someone, so I can supply
with a lot of things at a low price. Shipping a 10 kg package to Belgium for
example costs 40 Euro. At 5 kilogrammes you'd pay 30 Euro, etc.

Cheers,

Fedor
