One thing I learned is that typewriters are worthless. I tried selling some of them and not a single one would bring more than $30. I don't know why, but there is little market for them. People are still infatuated with computers to the point where vintage typewriters are not of interest.

Yep, some of the really early ones are valuable and the colorful ones from the 60s and 70s have value.....but all the rest nadda....the 30s typewriters are only valued for their keys that people use to make jewelry.... Calculators have no value but the nixie tube ones are pretty cool in my eye..
