Commodore 64, 2 floppy drives, expansion module, printer = $800 in 1984. 300K connection rates if I was lucky.
Is that a typo? 300K, or 300b? Connection to what?

There was a BB in Columbia, MO. I can't even remember the name of it. May have been through the University of MO.

I was at a computer club's yard sale and picked up a few items such as some 1mb rams for my old computer @ 4 for a buck.
I noticed a new in the box radio shack 300b modem for 50 cents. It was store priced at $299.00. I heard the guy in charge tell someone that if they didn't want to pay 50 cents, to just give it to them.
