Must be quite a narrow market for "Amiga/C64 Joystick to C16/Plus 4 Adapter Cable" though...

It's probably significantly larger except even I didn't know they sold such things. If you own a Commodore 16 or Plus/4 you NEED this. It is a required purchase :)
If 100,000 C= 264 series machines are still around then 100,000 would be sold if every owner knew it was for sale.
OK good news Keyrah C64 is in stock, strangely Keyrah for Amiga does not even come up on a search of the website hmmmm how strange for a company called AMIGAkit to not even show it as an out of stock product from the past

Who sells parallel ports anymore? I don't think the transfer cable from 1541 to parallel port will sell because most people would have to have a parallel port installed on their computer and do they even make them anymore? Does anyone still know how to use them?
If you want to sell then you have to update your products.

I have a parallel port on my work computer because it is required to use the POS printer I use. Took me a while to find one with one. I suppose when I upgrade I will have to buy an adapter or a plugin card for it, or buy a new $300 printer.

I have a 1541 hooked up to a parallel port, to write d64 images from the internet. It works really well. I also have a small laptop hooked to my C128 via a parallel port, and run 64HDD, which means I can mount any drive or directory on the laptop as a floppy disk on the C128. I don't throw away any old PC, and pick them up for nothing at yard sales, and here at work, when they retire them. Very cheap, and they still have plenty of good uses. Most people, when they get a new PC, just want rid of the old. Bad for them, good for me.

If there are stiil 2000 C16/Plus4 systems left (in use) I'd be surprised.

I wouldn;t. Check out forums like Lando's Plus/4 World and C16 etc. There is still a pretty active scene for the 264 range, new demos are released regularly. You must realise they were probably more popular than the C64 in parts of Europe for a few years.
