WOW . . .   How can you live without that ?  And you haven't purchased it already ?  Commodore geeks are rolling over on their graves . . .  LOL

Here's a good one. A first edition paperback?! That's rich....

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-First-Edition-Computer-Companion-for-Commodore-64-/8823950340?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item20df2cc04

Nice find. Not as rare and unique as this though...
A faulty back-to-front Amiga 1200. Must have been a manufacturing defect! Mind you, they say QC wasn't too hot at Commodore. A bargain at £70:

uhhhhhh, techinical books and manuals usually go through several editions and are in paperback. Though to be fair it usually better to have the latter editions rather than the first.
 
And whilst it might not be rare, I don't know, its not eactly expensive either.
 
So bit confused  ?

It's probably the first and last edition. Extra rare!

Thanks for that. That made me chuckle. It must make it a little-endian 68020.

Beware of the ultra rare A1000

Nothing funny in the title; but when I read the price asked, and the fact that the guy asked the police to participate in the transaction; I just started to roll on the floor :)
