I have for sale a nice Amstrad 6128 plus computer, spanish keyboard, with CM14 stereo and color monitor

Both had been recapped using panasonic caps bought on tme.eu and following the Amstrad service manual

Now both the computer and monitor looks and sounds perfect

I don't know why, but the 5v cable from the monitor to the 6128plus works sometimes... and then the voltage drops... so, as all other things are working fine, I'm incluing a 5v adapter to give power to the 6128plus, which works flawlessly and also have conectors for other uses if you whish :)

The computer is already fixed regarding the bug on the keyboard, this plus models includes a resistence array before inputing keyboard rows & cols to the AY chip, but plus models uses a modern AY chip which already has the pullups inside, so with time the resistence array makes the keyboard faulty... now it works nice, all keys, as is shown in test in the photos

Floppy disk is repladed with a gotek with flashfloppy and white 3d printed adaptor, so it looks nice and clean, I'll include a pendrive with some disk images

I'm including also a Scart/Euroconector to din adaptor so you can connect any RGB signal to the CM14 monitor (tested with rgb pi, msx computer, and Amiga 1200 computers, works both PAL and NTSC signals)

I'm including a Dandanator Dual with it's adaptor cable to be able to hook it up to the plus computers. Is important to note that this expansions are very sensible to cable length, it works nice on 6128 and 464 computers, but on plus models the adaptor cable can make it fail, so I've modified the cable to make the distance to the dandanator shorter and it works fine

The Dandanator Dual has two 512ks banks for storing roms, so you can save in them games to load up from a boot menu. This set of roms can be changed from a computer with a usb cable (i've not tried this as I hardly used this computer, but there is info about how to do it online)

Item for sale:
- Computer Amstrad 6128plus (recaped and keyboard fixed)
- Basic/Burning rubber cart
- CM14 stereo and color monitor (recaped)
- SCART - din adapter
- 2 Joysticks (one of them with microswitches)
- Gotek with flashfloppy installed in the computer, with an usb pendrive
- Dandanator dual + amstrad plus adaptor cable
- Cable to hookup another external floppy drive (or gotek unit)

Price: 450 EUR + shipping and paypal fees if not using paypal family & friends

Shipping from Spain.

Edit: Hi!

As i've said in the opening post, this was also available elsewhere, and other person has bought the computer here in spain in another platform, so item is already sold

I'm sorry @zoopster, but the other person already closed the sale in the other platform.

Declaring interest.
Interested. Can you provide an estimate of shipping to the UK? Thanks.
 
Hi!

I have no experience sending packages to UK post-brexit, so please also inform on your side about what kind of prodecures, taxes or any other charge this transaction could be affected by

I use a postal service comparator online to search for best prices sending packages (I've used it to send packages in Spain and other EU countries without any issue)

This is a big package, I make sure to to a good package protection (i have experience sending big 21" vga monitors without a problem in the past :-) )

With this in mind the package is 50cm x 50cm x 50cm and about 20kg, and these are the options I see sending from my postal code to a postal code in Oxford (for comparision, I guess it would be the same for your real address)

these are the 3 cheaper options, UPS goes from 136 eur and up...

Added to this cost, I guess you should also cover the VAT and tariff as this is over 150eur, but I don't know the numbers, can you inform about what aditional fees you have to face purchasing a second hand item from Europe?

For example, here in Spain we should face a VAT of 21% over product price plus shipping (in this case it would be 450+58,14 eur at 21%) and maybe a 2.5% aditional tariff for purchasing a computer (It's been quite a lot of time since my last purchase outside EUR managed by me)

I think at the end it would be a lot... this is the reason I've also stopped purchasing from japan, as it's the same... but it's up to you :-)

Regards!
