I have just listed three A500s with dead floppy drive and two with imperfect boxes.

HERE while they last.

I don't check mobo revisions, but the few I have opened up have been rev5 so chances are they are all that rev.

KS roms are a crap shot between KS1.2 and KS1.3. I'd say about 60% are KS1.2 and 40% are KS1.3.

Sorry if that doesnt help for these specifically

Red, do you know what edition that Magic deck is? Revised, 4th, etc, its difficult to see...Or approximate age?


It is from 1994. The box says nothing about any edition or revision.

If only I was in N America Jag, I'd take some bits off your hands...


That's no excuse! I have shipped to Australia, Malasyia, Czech republic, Poland, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, UK, Taiwan and many others in the last month alone:-D

But is it not expensive?


Depends on what you consider expensive, and I give options. I just quoted shipping to Denmark a few minutes ago, here is what I quoted.

A500 to denmark via USPS:
Quote
Global Express Mail (EMS)  3 - 5 Days $88.00
Airmail Parcel Post  4 - 10 Days $71.00
Economy (Surface) Parcel Post  4 - 6 Weeks $40.00

I don't suppose you still have any A500s with imperfect boxes left then do you? :-)


The ones I listed on eBay for $70 are gone. I just checked and I have one more in the office ATM with a 'slightly' imperfect box I suppose I could sell for $70:-)

Ah, have you had anyone have them shipped using the slow overland mail method?


Yeah they've gotten there..sloooooww.. Box in o-k condition. I'd personally recommend Air, but surface will get there eventually.

A little slower than usual this week. Three out of five are sold. There are still two units available with bad flopy drives. I have had people put feelers on them in the last 24 hours so they could go at any time.. :-?

-Edit-

And then there was one... going going..:-D
