I would go to say an A3500 is the rarest one or an original Commodore A4000T. The A600's are as commen as muck compared to them.
Or maybe the A2500?

...and if you really did bought A1200 at that time (OK, maybe in early 1993) you would still be short of joy on getting most of KS1.3 games working at all. KS2+ did made quite a mess back then, but it could be remedied with extra effort.
at all times...
Thats very strange as my one is from early '93 and I never had an issue with OCS games before (just used the boot up trick with the mouse buttons).

I thought the A1500 was just a towerised A1200 with a micronik Z2 busboard ??

No the A1500 was sold in the UK only as far as I know. Long story short it was to try and blow the after market A500 desktop case kit (Checkmate) out of the market with Commodores "official" A1500, which is an A2000 with an extra floppy drive and a sticker over the "A2000" badge.
Hardly see the point why they went to all that effort as the desktop kit was far from a good seller.

From what I understand it is like the A1000 over in Europe. Here in North America, they are quite plentiful and very easy to get, but I understand that is not the case over there.

Rare as hens teeth here, even really bad banged up PAL examples fetch astronomical ammounts of "£'s". It may be genesis but it isn't worth that much if you ask me as it is so limited to upgrades.
