To be honest I wasn't expecting to get much more than £44.

a) It's an A1000 - they go cheap. They're rare-ish over here but are OCS and almost completely non-expandable.
b) It's NTSC so you need a step-down transformer.
c) It's not complete - I don't have a spare mouse
d) It's not fully working - although it's only the space bar that I couldn't get to work. I reckon it'll start working again if you take the keyboard apart and clean it properly.

The main reason for selling it was because I wanted to free up the space, not for the money. It only cost me £50 a few years back and that included a monitor, an A500 and an A500 HDD, so I'm not complaining.

Out of interest, it sold to Portugal in the end.
