Finally got around to taking some pics. I think I'll do 1 item per post, to make edits easier. I like trades, but won't refuse trading for currency.
WANTED: I may be interested in some pickups, Jaguar/Jazzmaster control plates, 1Meg un-used audio pots and other Jag/JM components if you have them laying around. A nice chrome roller string tree (for fender-style headstocks). Possibly pedals or even decent dynamic mics. Feel free to let me know what you have, worst I can say is "no"
Please quote the post with the item(s) you are interested in, to make things easier for me.

I only have one of these. The box says "alnico", while I see a black magnet on the back. But under it I do see a shiny magnet. I think the black magnet is what they call a "helper" magnet. This is all I know. Never soldered, never installed. The crinkles you see are the scratch protection film on top. And some paraffin smudges that are easy to clean off.
I think these are meant to be a good fit into rick toasters and dynasonic pickups. 4 gold screws are in the box.

I don't have retail boxes for these, but they are "original Nashville" - before they made them in PAF-size. So these are in "mini humbucker" form factor. Sorry, I don't have any rings/bezels or screws, just what you see. Never installed, never soldered, still covered by scratch protection film. I measured them to have 14.02k (neck) and 14.15k (bridge) DCR, which really only tells you that there's continuity and not much else.
They are 5-lead and GFS wiring diagram is included, so they can be wired for coil-split, series/parallel and in/out of phase.

NO LONGER AVAILABLE, I'll delete the post after the item is received and recipient is happy with condition.
This one is "pre antiqued" and I tried to take a close-up of the little spot where the plating has flaked off. And there's discoloration in a few spots on the arm. Includes 2 gold screws (the third screw is on your strap peg). Also includes the original 7/8" spring and the optional 1" spring, which is considered to give a nicer feel - I always put them in all of mine.
B30 and B3 Bigsby size is meant for guitars like Les Paul or Gretsch Jet or maybe similar smaller hollow/semihollow like Epi Wildkat. I had it on my large archtop (Douglas WNO-630) and it worked fine, but the arm was a little short due to guitar size. So I got the proper one and this one's for sale.

Never installed, never soldered, still covered with scratch protection film. I measured it to have 8.47 kOhm DCR. Includes screws and mounting foam and wiring instructions.

Set of generic gold humbuckers, two-lead (no coil-splitting), these look like they might be alnico (shiny magnets peaking through the baseplate), but I don't know for sure. Don't worry about the big difference in resistance on these - they came from one guitar and were not unbalanced with each other.
P-bass pickup covers (never used).

Sorry, I'm kind of aiming at trades first, but will consider reasonable offers. Issue with just "selling" is that the shipping tends to kill it. If we trade, we kind of do a favor to each other. Let me know what interests you, I was just trying to post everything for now

I had this in a guitar, so it's "pre antiqued" for ya
It could be polished with brasso if you prefer. Includes studs as shown.
Here's where I got it if you need more specs:
