Picked up an A500+ with a GVP A530 and KCS Power PC Board Plus today, including the usual diskdrives, mice, joysticks and hundreds of disks. All for a ridiculously low price :)
There is a little battery damage (nothing that can't be solved with cleaning), and the A530 has suffered from some DIY power connector surgery, so if anyone can help me with an original/replacement connector I can bring back this baby to a more original status.
The power connector on the A530 isn't all that easy to find these days, but it was used quite a lot back then. The Atari XL/XE used the same one for the monitor output, so you might be able to "borrow" one from a scrapped board.
Bryce.
Hard to find? It looks like a female Din 5 connector.

The hunt will definitely be on then, for a disc (unless you already have one somewhere) :-)
I have earmarked some cash to spend at the end of the month on retro - so I'm now going to go trawling around looking for something "interesting" ;-) Plus the Lynx games you put in my head by buying/showing :-P
