wanted: Commodore (64) 1581 floppy drive
« on: December 10, 2008, 04:56:30 AM »
I've decided to transfer some files off 5" disk. Looking for a 1581 to rig up to my system. Let me know if you have one for sale. Paypal standing by.

*still* looking for a 1581. Watching one on Ebay but I have $100 standing by if someone wants to part with one. It's a floppy drive so I cannot justify paying any more than that. If no joy by end of next week then I will get one of those $50 kits and cannibalize one of my Amiga external drives.

Thanks for the offer. I managed to get one with the manuals, disks etc for just a little higher than my initial offer and much less than other people were asking.

I appreciate the reply though.
