I’m suddenly craving a retro Win 98/2000 build.

Sexus for your time.

I have a few stacked up at work. Anything in particular you’re looking for? I can look tomorrow.

I think the real question is how far away you live. Because if it’s gonna cost a kidney and a half to ship something like that here, then don’t bother.

Aah, but it’s gonna cost a bitch-ton to ship it cross country.

That’s not that far away! If the shipping isn’t ridiculous, how much would you sell it for?

Take your PC now and get an emulator for it. Much cheaper.

Here's a fun one. I've got an old gateway that originally had Windows ME. The original hard drive is fried. The 2nd drive has a Windows XP install. It also has a hard drive from a Windows 98 computer which will actually work if you switch which drive is plugged in.
