Hi all!
It's time to clear out my collection. This is the first part - I've got a boxed C64GS and an A1200 still to put up, but this is the majority of it (by weight and volume!).
There's quite a lot here, so I suspect that postage costs will be high. If someone lives near (or not so near) Bristol, UK (anywhere along the M4 or M5 or south west), then it might well be easier to meet in person.
There's so much here that I haven't had time to test everything, but anything I have tested I will call out.
Hardware
C128D - 40 column output good, 80 column (though included SCART adapter) good too. 64 mode good. Sound works. The bad - the 1571 doesn't function. It seems to make the right sounds, but comes up with a disk error message (or file not found). Chip on the back of the case, which is moderately yellowed. Space bar a little wonky (works, but right hand side seems to be unclipped).
Vine CGA adapter - displays 80 column output through SCART. Working.
1700 REU - very yellowed, but with test disk. I think can be made in to a 1750 by swapping/adding some higher capacity RAM chips.
C64 - video output OK, cartridge port works, as does joystick port.
Boxed Commodore modem - This was from the Compunet system back in the day. Also a spare, unboxed modem that used to drop calls. Some docs for it too.
1530 tape drive
Cassette duplicator - this is the small PCB above and to the right of the tape drive. I think you would plug in two drives at once (never tried it as I only had one drive).
Light pen
SuperG centronics printer adapter - used to use this with GEOS. Worked very nicely at the time.
Stack serial interface
Cheetah infra red joystick
Books
C128 Programmer's Reference Guide
C64 Programmer's Reference Guide
C128 (not D) manual (I traded my C128 for a C128D, the C128D didn't have a manual so I kept this one)
Master Memory Map for the C64
An introduction to 6502 machine code
Software
Simon's Basic
Easy Script (looks like the games are missing)
Quizmaster
Oxford Pascal
CP/M plus disks (3 and 3.3)
GEOS 128 2.0
GeoPublish
GEOS 64 2.0 / GEOS 64 1.3 UK edition (I think, I have two sets of GEOS disks but they don't mention the version numbers)
GeoBasic
GeoWorld disks
Utilities Unlimited disks
FSSL PD software
128 Users Pack
Maverick
Commodore Disk Users (11 of those)
Light Fantastic pack, with lightgun and 3D glasses
Trivial Pursuit pack
Hollywood Games pack
Pinball Spectacular on cartridge
A few (15 or so) other games on tape
====
Everything in the big picture is included in the sale. Given the amount of stuff, I'm initially going to ask for in-person collection in the UK only, maybe meeting up somewhere mutually convenient.
The asking price is £175, or sensible offers.
Cheers,
Ian
