I'm clearing out space in my basement and offering a collection of retro PCs for sale. All but three computers are housed in AT tower or desktop cases and include the following components: power supply, motherboard, CPU, RAM, and a graphics card. Some systems may also have additional expansion cards or drives.
Testing Procedure:
If you're interested in any of the PCs, simply reference the computer number shown in the pictures.
Once you receive your computer, we'd love to read about what peripherals and components were inside and whether the purchase met your expectations!
Price: €50 per computer + shipping.

Edit: I've expanded my original post with testing results. I've also added four additional computers. Numbers 5, 6, 8, 11, 15, 17, 18, 23, 24 have been sold today to kixs.
Testing Procedure:
- Each computer was connected to a power source and a monitor.
- If the indicator lights on the computer case illuminated, the computer was considered to have powered on successfully.
- If the monitor displayed the POST (Power-On Self-Test) process, the computer was considered to have successfully initiated the POST.
- As the keyboard was not connected, the testing was halted at the completion of the POST procedure.
If you're interested in any of the PCs, simply reference the computer number shown in the pictures.
