ATARI 8bit 400's to 32bit Falcon030

TM auction pulled as was worded against their T&Cs. Trader "dnalor" mentioned on the auction he was moving to OZ and selling up the vintage computer collection. A $50K start might be an indicator of the size of the collection on offer.

Anyone who knows the person or might have ever traded with him (not me), might want to get in now. The trader offered to list up requests.

Now I've been reading ads for the Hitachi "Peach" in the ETI mags (and see Tezza has also mentioned elsewhere on the site), I'd quite like one sitting next to an Apricot. I wonder if there are any of them about in NZ.


Clint: "I'd like 2 Atari 400s, a couple of Jupiter Ace's, and an Apple Lisa
dnalor: "Would you like chips with that?"

LOL!

I've always been intriged by the Hitachi Peach. Micro-80 started supporting them at one stage. A Peach, and an Apricot . It just seems kinda right, doesn't it :)

Listed on sella. You know, that site I have a look on once in every long while, but have never ever seen any real ads in about 10 category searches that would frequently turn up many results on tm. It's a pity the site has so many filler auctions to pad out the numbers. There's hardly anything second hand on the site at all.

I discovered you have to be address or cellphone verified to post a question. The later was quick and easy.

Ditto. I lost all trust in the person and didn't look much past the second or third relist. I can only imagine the collection when to OZ with him.
