Yeah, I think I'm in the same boat. Except sometimes I cant help myself.
I've often listed old stuff on ebay (when ebay was good), for $1 along with a message that was along the lines of "this works, and didnt want to throw it in the bin, hoping it will get a new home".
When ebay was good, I'd sometimes get a couple $100 dollars for stuff that was just sitting in a box. Not sure many use ebay these (I know I dont as much - and my attempts to empty the box havent even got the $1 now).
My new toy I'm waiting on is a few CM5 boards to go into my DeskPi Super6C that I've managed to score (hence my keeness to get SBBS running on 64 bit arm).
I also have an Radxa X4 coming (Pi sized but N100 processor), which might be SBBS home if arm64 doesnt work out...
