Sold 2x Tatung Einstein TC01

[smos]

For sale 2x Tatung Einstein TC01.

These machines came from an office refurb some 15-20 years ago and have been kept boxed in the loft since.

One is a standard model, however the other could possibly be an extremely rare model commissioned for a private company, as instead of the standard 'TATUNG EINSTEIN' badge/logo it is badged as 'NATIONAL TELEPHONE SYSTEMS' (pictured). I do not know the meaning of this but it is fair to assume that this was not a standard model. This was the only one rescued at the time so could quite possibly be the last example in existence. It also has an extra chip (pictured).

As they were due to be skipped the power leads have been cut and therefore I have never had them working and thus can only sell as spares or repair. Also included 2 manuals and a circuit board which was attached to the back of the standard model (pictured). One also has the casing removed from the power supply which is missing, indicating someone before me intended to replace the power leads.

£50 O.V.N.O.


Cash buyer to collect from central Essex. Would possibly consider sending via courier at the buyers expense.

Thank you for your interest....

Declaring interest if it's possible to ship within UK? (Parcelmonkey do cheap quotes)

Thank you both for your interest. I really would prefer the buyer to collect with cash on collection as it is far less complicated. As a last resort I would insider courier delivery but only if nobody else can collect them. Sputnik I hope that therefore it is considered fair for me to make the deal with TheCorfiot if he wishes to as he will collect, unless of course you can collect them yourself and equal his offer? Otherwise you will remain first in line for possible postage if nobody else wishes to collect.

I hope that this is fair and if so please feel free to private msg me regarding collection TheCorfiot.

Bit disappointed to be honest as I was willing to pay for a courier and was still trying to think of a way to get someone to collect.

Ah well, not the first time I've been passed over in this way on Amibay.

As per rules you still should be first in line, even postage was offered ...

'buyer to collect' looks like a preference. Its right there in the post.

Are you saying the seller has to sell it in a way that suits you, but not him?

Seller is accepting the rules and it is not about what suits who. Either way sputnik should have had a chance to organise pickup and have a chance at least to withdrawn interest - which obviously did not happen ... What suddenly happened with gentleman spirit ...

I think the above paragraph explains the situation fully.

smos has stated that he would prefer collection as it is less complicated and was willing to consider a courier only as a last resort.

TC was willing and able to collect as the buyer wished.

End of story.

 

[TheCorfiot]

Tatungs Collected and payment sent.
Thanks so much to Paradroid90....

No Problem TC

Sold to TheCorfiot, honest and straightforward and a pleasure to trade with. To clarify things Sputnik was offered to match TC offer to collect before any deal was accepted by TC, as was only fair to do so.
