Wanted: Amiga 500 Batman Pack with all original contents, box, sleeve and inner packing. Preferably not yellowed!

Thank you all for your help and recommendations. Whilst I pluck up courage to attempt retrobrighting, does anyone have a simple solution for effectively cleaning my 500 case without taking it apart? I read that IPA will damage the plastic and cleaning wipes like Dettol are a No No. So just for...

I don’t have the kit to do it indoors and down here in Brighton you just cannot rely on it being sunny without showers at the moment 😳 But yes, I take your point. Guess I should take that leap of faith!

Hi there, great question. If it went wrong I guess I would ask to “go again”. But hey, I realise this is no exact science. It would seem that not using cling film and regularly re-pasting might be the way forward? Thing is, I have a yellowed 500 and would love it to be at least close to how it...

Hi there Might sound like a stupid question, but does anyone know of anyone willing to offer a retrobrite service? I bought a rather yellowed A500 with thoughts of sorting it out, but now I am not sure I can do this myself. Anyone up for the challenge?

Hi there I just acquired an Atari 800XL in nice condition. I was watching a video on Youtube about the XL and suddenly realised that mine has a strange badge that I have not seen anywhere else. The L in XL is smaller than the rest of the font. Has anyone else ever seen this? Pics attached …

Looking for a nice example Atari 800 (original, not XL) in box with polys. I had one, along with a boxed 400 and sold both back in the Naughties and now regret it. Don’t you just hate “Hind sight”!? Edit: I have cash ready and waiting if anyone is interested in selling their boxed 800? Ohhh...

Item received, thank you! What do I need to do to add feedback please?

Payment sent. Thank you! 😊

Declaring interest in one TF1260 with 128mb ram IDE port without CPU - is this still £228 + £5 postage in the UK? Forgive my ignorance but what do I do now? Also, do you supply the board with the nice LEDs?

Ooh, thank you! Might look into that! :)

Hi there I thought i had purchased a Rev 6 MC68060RC60 (with correct Mask for a Rev 6) but it turned out to be an MC68LC060 50 mhz Rev 4. Is this the same cpu that you would suppply if I ordered the card WITH cpu? If it is the same cpu, is it just a case of slotting the cpu in to a socket if...

😊

Declaring interest (again).

No longer interested, thank you.
