I can top that!  In the fall of 1998 I drove 300 miles round trip to 
pick up FOR FREE:

Rom 3 //GS
//GS monitor, keyboard and mouse.
Memory expansion card that takes 4 - 1 meg simms (5 megs total ram)
2 3.5" drives.
1 5.25" drive.
1 5.25" duo drive.
Complete PC Transporter package with 640K card, Manual, installation 
video, software, //GS installation kit.
Dual 3.5" drives for PC transporter.
ImageWriter II printer.
RamFast SCSI card.
Apple SCSI card.
65 meg SCSI drive already loaded with GSOS 6.01 and most of the software 
listed below.
Many large boxes of books (including the complete Toolbox Reference 
series) and software (including Appleworks GS, Wordperfect, Paintworks 
Plus, DeluxePaint II, Music Studio, ORCA Pascal and Assembler, etc. plus 
more games than I've ever seen).
Hundreds of 3.5" and 5.25" disks with backups, bootlegs, etc. of all 
kinds of //e and //GS software.
Probably other stuff that I'm forgetting now.

My car was literally loaded to the max.  Passenger seat, back seat and 
trunk all full!

The guy was moving from Florida to Boston and didn't feel like taking it 
with him.  He's probably kicking himself now!
