One of my swapmeet friends showed up today with Radio
Shack Color Computer
3 in the original box, is it worth anything? (no clue on condition or
completeness etc., but I could look next time).
I think they are cool. But then I have been acquiring CoCo stuff for the
last twenty-one years!
A 128K CoCo 3 with box and manuals is probably worth $25.00.

I'd pay $25 for it, maybe a little more but not a lot more. It seems that when I
find
a CoCo it is either a CoCo 1 or a CoCo 2.

This guy on eBay seems to think CoCos are worth a lot more.
His feedback count speaks volumes. Enjoy!

Let me see if I get this right.
$2,500.00 for a 4K CoCo I. No pedigree.
Bwhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! *gasp* Bwahahahahahahahaha!
*ahem* I'm ok now. Really. (hysterical laughter begins anew as Gene

That one doesn't either, and in true eBay style, it is now a "True
Antique".

There's a $2,500 minimum bid on this guy's CoCo 1. Granted, I think the
original CoCo is a fine computer to collect, but I have two words for this
guy: "jack" and "ass".
Put them together and it spells "idiot".

I sent him a message and stated that I thought that his price was 50 to 100 times
too high.
May be is he that is 50 to 100 times too high?

I tried to sell this CoCo, but I was high ...
I wanted to sell it cheap, but I was high --
Now it's overpriced, and I know why --
'Cause I was high, 'cause I was high, 'cause I was hi-igh!
