I have a working 1541 going spare. It's the bare drive - I have cables if you need / want them but no box or instructions. Not looking to part it out but I'm happy to sell it as a complete unit. I can re-test it (it's been sat for a few months) and send photos over later if you're interested. From memory the drive works fine but has some battle scars (scratches on the label and some cable burns on the bottom side).
FYI, I'm based in Berkshire - you'd be welcome to collect rather than post it (I'm thinking cost and risk of damage). Also happy to discuss swaps depending on what you have. Currently mostly looking at 8 / 16-bit consoles and trying to find a half decent A1200 (don't care about cosmetics as I have a new case and keycaps 'on order' from the latest indiegogo). I already have a bunch of 8-bit Commodore stuff (2 VIC 20s, 3 C64s, 1 C16), 2 A500s and 2 Speccies but surprise me - I may be tempted!
