So, yes, I'm parting with one of my Spectravideo machines. This one is jam packed with a ton of optional stuff including the super rare "Super Expander" - with dual floppies too!

This has been tested and is all working. Let me know if you have any questions...

Sold!

I think I lost out big time on that one - ah well, that's the risk of Trade Me. Possibly better to put rare stuff out onto eBay rather than just Trade Me.

Lesson learnt.

What price did it go for? Sorry, Trade Me is blocked here at work and I'm dying to know.

$200

Goodness. With all that stuff especially the expander. Cheap at the price.

Not really too worried about the price, it was more that there was very little interest in it. I guess they aren't as appealing to collectors as an Apple II.
I have a few more units (I'll keep my other expander) which I think will be better on eBay. Just have to bring myself to part with them!

I was bloody amazed to see the "broken commodore and pile of crap" auction go for $250 , this is not a time of year to expect big bidders, most people been on holiday, this time last year i grabbed several bargins.
