A very substantial stock of NOS (New Old Stock) Commodore hardware has been located and is now in a private collection.
Pictures of NOS(New Old Stock) C64c computers and 1541-II floppy drives are listed in the gallery today.

[color=FF0000]Update:[/color] Additional pictures available.
Many thanks to AO member ALX for his assistance.


There are no plans at present to sell this stock, they will remain in private storage. This is likely the largest collection of brand new commodore 64s and 1541s public or private in the world. If any specific additional photos are wanted, PM me and I will happily oblige.

Is there going to be any room left in your house that's still avaliable to live in? :-P

Or is it just a maze full of boxes now? :-D

BTW: i am not at liberty to say exactly by how much ATM, but my collection of A500s (C= refurbs) just grew substantially. Let's just say the quantities are mind blowing. :-o

Heh!  I have an old-school brown C64 w/box and original 1541 in box.  I wish my boxes had were in as nice of shape, though!  ... and had pretty graphics on them.

(My 64c / 1541II combo is unboxed.  :-(  )

Great find, ya lucky dog!  ;-)

I can't believe this stuff is just sitting around like that, waiting to be found.  Totally amazing!  

It so frickin' cool!

;-) Nice catch there, Red.  I notice on the 1541-II that it reads: "GEOS inside," or something.  The glare from the flash obscures part of it.

:-? Is that what it reads?

@Quixote

Yes that's exactly what it reads. "Geos Inside", It has Geos bundled.

Redrum, how exactly do you manage to find all this stuff? are you a computer historian or something?  I'm just amazed at the speed with which you're finding dozens of brand-new 80s machines...

Or do you have a time machine in your basement?  :-P
