If one of the keys isn't working, on eBay it could go for a pittance. Your best bet if you want to sell, is to get a replacement key somehow (a C64?), and then sell.

How I wish that were true in the UK. I didn't win the last (admittedly boxed) C128, because I only bid £126 (about $200, I reckon).

Yeah 128's tend to go for stupid money over here. As do 64's to be honest as the last one of them I saw was £80....

I sold a near mint 128 on Ebay for $250 last year. The box was perfect and some of the included software wasn't even opened. Supposed to have been used "two or three times". I've seen less "minty" 128's going for $50-$80.

Wow!  I've got 4 of them, but only 2 work (the other 2 only boot into C128 mode and won't work in C64 mode).

I'd love a C128D.

Wow.. Loads of replies.

Mine is a PAL unit. Maybe I should try selling it. As far as i remember the key does work but it broke off.

Never really got into the C128 thing. Did not even know it has a C64 mode. I probably only switched it one once and never loaded anything on it.
