Please see my O2 Architecture page for details on the O2 system:

The shipping cost to a UK destination for an O2 system is 18 UKP (for
ParcelForce48 2-day guaranteed shipping with full insurance), while
for mainland Europe it is typically around 55 to 65 UKP (eg. for
France, Germany and Denmark it is 63 UKP; varies from place to place).
The box weight is about 17kg. See www.parcelforce.com for precise
details.

Alternatively, a personal collection is welcome, or I can deliver by
train/bus (the buyer merely pays my travel costs).

This system was used for training at an effects company for just 3
months and then put into storage, so it has hardly been used at all
and is thus in mint condition. It didn't have any effects software
installed (the system had been running SoftImage off of remote
servers, so no fancy licenses were present), but the system does
include a permanent license for SoftWindows (original CD included).

I have put on a clean full installation of IRIX 6.5.15m (my own
special installation with lots of extras such as Blender, BMRT, MOPS,
etc.) and then put the license files back on again along with
SoftWindows95 V4.0. Note that for doing video work, 6.5.15 is the
better OS release to use since some bugs were introduced into later
release updates.

The system includes an original SGI CD media set of 6.5.2, plus a CDR
set of the 6.5.15 update. Also included are original CDs of
SoftWindows95 V5 (V4 is installed though since V5 is not as good IMO),
O2 Demos V1.2, Out of Box Experience 2.2, a CDR copy of the February
2003 Freeware and my SGI Gifts CDs.

I grabbed some video footage and will add pictures of the system and
maybe a movie to my advert page some time this week if I can.
