C64 Gold: http://www.ebay.de/itm/COMMODORE-C-64-C64-GOLDENE-EDITION-EXTREM-SELTEN-w-d-C-65-GOLD-GOLDEN-/111288899168?pt=Klassische_Computer&hash=item19e955d660

Wow, anyone would think it was 24ct gold plated or something! *facepalm*

[djos]

Maybe mints are yellow where he comes from?

*facepalm*

Sorry if this has already been posted already but $1000 for this is absolutely nuts. Is this NOT a GBS8200 in a fancy case?

It is but bumping a product up to an insane price is a standard trick used by sellers to avoid re-listing fees when they run out of stock, when they get stock they put the price back down.

Lol, seller posing under the influence!.

[djos]

So much yellowed fail I don't know where to start!

Lol, what does he think it is, an a590?

[djos]

What we have here, is TEN game console setups... each setup would sell for around $80 Australian...

So why would I pay $2000 for the lot?

Lol, I just hate ebay sellers that are so lazy or stupid they cant rotate their photos properly!

[djos]

$2800 for a CD32. I nice CD32, with lots of upgrades, but yikes. Wonder if they're including all the scratches on the case in that price?

My god that thing is beat to hell!!!

[djos]

Quite possible, I suppose!  I don't know anything about old Macs or Apple II's.  Is this a big problem with them?

I had 2 IIc's from '84 that I only sold a few months ago and neither had issues with caps failing.

[djos]

Not mine but thought i would share as it is a very nice custom case and not a bad price either.

That's actually pretty stunning!

[djos]

I got one of those where no kickstart disk is needed, I was told the mod was most likely done by the dealer, I still have to investigate it further

If it's just KS1.3 split across 4 eproms then it's should be quite easy to replicate i'd have thought? I can see any physical mods on the MB.

[djos]

Is it possible to split KS3.1 across four ROMs for a 1000?

yep, WinHex would do it, that's pretty much how you make two physical roms for an a1200 or a4000 from a single rom file. Just need to know which eproms are compatible and work out what address to split them at.

EDIT: Hmm, more info here - looks like you also need to bridge W2 & W4 which is easy.

[djos]

Much thanks!

No worries, I wish I had a 1000 to try all this out on - I'd have bought that US one (and made the Rom's available) if it wasnt for me buying a house right now and not having the spare funds.

[djos]

Three loaded A2000's went for under $600, or under $200 a pop.  Somebody got themselves a pretty sweet deal!  I would've bid in on this, except for one thing: how much space they would take up!  :lol:

Damn, I live in the wrong country!

[djos]

That's what you get for standing on your head!  :roflmao:

Hi All,

Of course in Australia you could buy an Amiga 500, stock standard, apparently brand new in box for $2500. Untested.

Bargain.
