New Zealand Vintage Computer Forums

I'm sure a whole lot of us have this on our watchlist...looks like a nice machine with only a seized floppy drive.

Happy bidding - I can see a war opening up on this one!

Yes. Then there is the Poly too of course.

Bidding wars on $400 and $500 computers. You guys are far too rich for me Wouldn't mind the Poly though.

Luckily Matt Dawson has a mortgage now. Not sure if that will stop him though

Ok, well someone had to start. At least my bid's shown where the reserve price is NOT. Unless I decide to sell one of my Lisas, this baby might be somewhat beyond my reach.

Great Zuse's ghost!
I was thinking about it, but with the Poly 1 I can't be buying 2 machines at that price!

Didn't stop me. My revolving credit mortgage has financed my entire collection, with a slight side-effect of a several year stasis on a reduction in the level of debt.

I'm not up with Mac 128K prices. What do they sell for overseas? $700 seems to be a fairly hefty bid for a vintage computer. I'd had to bring in a 1 cent lolly comparison...

To answer my own question $405 US and $161 US shipping.

Well, obviously not me. I may be dumb (cough, Poly), but I ain't a dumb dumb. Once is enough.

It wasn't me.

Those prices are sick not 'sic' !
