I'm selling a Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48k, without PSU. £90 inc UK postage (sold on ebay for £<Snip>)
edit: Sold on ebay almost the moment I posted this, so sorry to anyone who took an interest.
It's got a recapped issue 2 board, with composite mod and Traco Power voltage regulator. It's been fitted with a new white case, new white faceplate, and new keyboard membrane. It's also had a couple of upper RAM chips replaced. The coil is amazingly quiet, and doesn't produce the usual high pitched whine that most 48k Speccies produce. I intended to keep it, but then I bought an N-Go on a whim..
The composite output works, but my AV converter doesn't like the output and produces a very yellow picture. This happens on all three of my Spectrums, so either I have really bad luck, or it's a quirk of the converter I have. I could get a nice picture when using the AV input of my FPV goggles, however. I can add a photo of the view into my goggles, if required, but it'll be a bit weird! I usually use a ZX-VGA-JOY for video output, which works beautifully.
Hope the proof is enough. It'd be hard to work it into every photo.
