Moving House - Items to go
House moves are apparently an ideal time to reassess my Retro Computer items according to Mrs TopBanana, so a few items are up for grabs.
I can post some, smaller items, larger ones must be collected from Colchester on or before the evening of Sunday 10th June, otherwise they go to meet their maker.
PM me if you are interested in the items below, more to follow.

Re: Moving House - Items to go
^ hi TB, any chance you could just post the M128 mother board?
I have a Very naughty one, so don't need case or PSU & I have a working keyboard!
should be a £5.01 post, if you can be bothered to put in a big jiffy bag
let me know, Thanks

Re: Moving House - Items to go
I live just up the road from Top Bananananana (at least till he moves), while I dont have time for postage stuff either I can hold on to items for people if they want to pickup after the Sunday deadline (assuming I can get there myself). Or I hope to be at ABUG Cambridge if people are going and can wait that long. Could do pass the parcel. If someone then at Cam ABUG that will be at ABUGs further north.
Re: Moving House - Items to go
I've got a couple of Commodore Amiga A500s, boxed (although a bit tatty).
Both have trapdoor expansions, neither have been tested recently.
Collection only, will post some pictures later.
Both gone - Sydney & Mark via Elmister

If nobody else has taken it, and Elminster can take it to Cambridge ABUG, I'll have the keyboard. Ta.

Re: Moving House - Items to go
I'd love an amiga but have no way of collecting it. If Elminster is happy to take it to Cambridge and maybe pass it on to DaveH (assuming he's happy to do it) then I'll have one otherwise I'll pass.
Re: Moving House - Items to go
Wife permitting I can collect anything and pass it on in Sept.
Just need to work out where to store it for a 2 or 3 months.
I may not be able to pickup this weekend as the house is in disarray due to decorating, carpet going down next week so I should be finished (never good to be painting rooms AFTER new carpet is down) by next weekend.
Hopely Mr Banana can hold out till next weekend?

Re: Moving House - Items to go
If Duncan (Elminster) can collect, store and then transport it to Cambridge... then I would like the second Amiga A500 please.
If all of the above is yes, then many thanks to Duncan and Top Banana

Re: Moving House - Items to go
Hmmm. With a bit of suitcase juggling I may get them on the wardrobe I guess.

Re: Moving House - Items to go
20 x 27256 eproms.
I've used two in the past and had no issues with them, but have no idea if they have been erased (memory not what it used to be, no pun intended).
Safely stored in plastic tubes although they re not new, so you may have to straighten the odd pin.
£20 inc postage.

Watford Electronics Diagnostics Utility Disk & Manual.
No idea if it works, but might be of interest to someone.
Would be nice if whomever gets this could image the disk and scan the manual.
Free to a good home, either collect or you cover the cost of P&P.

Re: Moving House - Items to go
Thank you TB
,
postman24 came today at 11:30am
the case is in much better condition than mine, but the PSU looks like its been eaten by rust, so grinder to that
& the MB is a worker
the duel RetroClinic OS is 3.50 without jumper & 3.20 with it in.
so can now play with 3.50 for a change
here's the pics of my naughty broken one from a school with writing scrapped into the case, as you wanted to see per PM,
turns out to be "Tam + Vikki"
hope the move goes well, cheers!!

Re: Moving House - Items to go
Many thanks to TopBanana for the amiga and to Elminster for collecting it. Also DaveH for transporting it from Cambridge back the North East for me.
I love this forum!
Re: Moving House - Items to go
I've got a few monitors that I won't be taking with me, unfortunately it really is collection only and I don't think it's fair to ask Duncan to collect them, so you'll need to be able to get to sunny Colchester before Sunday evening. PM me if you are interested.
