Greetings Geeks & Geekettes;
I'm looking for a small pile of Commodore gear for a project a friend of
mine and I are putting together for this year's Chicago Commodore Expo
(which means a deadline of August or so).
I'm after:
Commodore 64s (any case style)
Commodore 128s (pref. not the beefy DCRs to save on shipping)
Disk drives (any type)
Power bricks for the above (drives & machines)
Associated cabling
Game carts (see below)
All of the above will be treated with respect and neither dismantled
(unless it was already broken, although I'd very much prefer working gear)
nor sold on, and will be part of a unique project which you'll all be
detailed on when the time looms near (Ooooo, hush, hush, exciting isn't
it?).
Except the game carts - which I'm cannabalising for their connectors,
which seem to be darned expensive on their own - so if you have broken
carts, even better!
I'd also like to find a monitor, as my own one is back in New Zealand and
out of reach right now, and for the life of me I can't seem to find either
my DIN->composite cables nor any of the blasted RF boxes that seem to
accumulate in every corner _until_ you're looking for one.
I'm looking for people who are willing to let this go for shipping only
(I'm not exactly made of money, but is anyone?) on the guarantee that
there will be no ignominious end to the equipment and the knowledge that
it will be used for a very cool multi-CPU project.
I'm based in the US (50441), by the way, and I'll probably keep my
shipping costs down by only taking up offers by US based people, but
please let me know.
Thank you all!
JP Hindin
