I really hate to do this, but I'm about to move across the country and I can't take my C= stuff with me. Sad This was the beginning of my C= collection, but I'm moving very light. Unfortunately, this is something that has to go.

Much of this stuff was given to me; some was purchased off the 'Bay. Because it was freely given, I'm going to do the same. I'm asking for shipping+boxing costs only. If you want to pick it up in southern Arizona, you can just come get it. If you want to add a donation for my upcoming adventure as a poor graduate student, you're more than welcome to do so. Wink

Everything comes in original boxes (some boxes are pretty rough, but they're original). Everything except the printers has been tested (in the past year) and works, but I offer no guarantees (I'll probably fire them up before I ship them out anyway; I'll let you know if something fails). All computers are NTSC versions. I'll try to make sure there's at least one serial cable with each drive, power cables with each drive, etc. One 64 will come with a "Commodore 64 Users Guide"; the other will come with "Compute's First Book of Commodore 64" (first come, first choose). I have a couple of joysticks, too; if you want one, ask. I'll throw in a few BRAND NEW (yes, NEWLY MANUFACTURED; floppydisk.com ) 5 1/4" floppies with each drive.

Commodore 64 (SN P001534XX) 5-pin video, very good condition, replaced power outlet?
Commodore 64 (SN P007426XX) 7-pin video, looks brand new
Commodore VIC-20 (SN P11469XX) case discolored, a bit dirty, no box, handmade crappy video cable
Commodore 128 (SN CA12063XX, mfd. 9/85) case and keyboard discolored, but otherwise good. Manuals and disks (no CP/M).
Commodore 1541 (SN BA1A242XX) push-type door, looks brand new, K-Mart $279.00 price tag on box Razz
Commodore 1541 (SN AA1A006XX) push-type door, excellent condition, box is pretty rough but will be packaged well
Commodore 1571 (SN JAI 0465XX) lever-type door, slight case discoloration, box is pretty rough but will be packaged well
Commodore 1526 (SN 10555XX) dot-matrix printer, with wire paper tray, very good condition, not tested, NO manual
Commodore 1526 (SN 10733XX) dot-matrix printer, with wire paper tray, very good condition, not tested, with manual
Commodore 1902 (SN 509294XX) works great, case is a little discolored, RBG/composite switch is a bit loose but works

Message me here if you're interested. I'd love it if the whole collection went to one person, but whatever. Please make this process as painless as possible for me. Sad

This kind of stories are always sad to hear but I guess sometimes there's just no other choice to make. If you can't get the collection shifted as a lot and shipping to europe would be ok I'd love to have newer C64 (no need to include any cables or such), thank you.

I was expecting to be able to afford to rent a truck or ship things, but I can't; I'm basically taking myself and some luggage only. I just want to see this good hardware go to good people.

This is all NTSC gear. Does that do you any good?

Where are you located? I could use a good 1571, and perhaps more if you're anywhere near Seattle.

Nevermind. I see you're in AZ. If you do end up splitting the lot, I'm still interested in the drive.

Yes, I indeed live in PAL area but I need NTSC unit for software testing.

As of right now, I'm talking to someone who wants the whole lot. If that changes, I'll update the thread.

Thanks all!

If that falls through I am in Northern Utah (that's pretty close) only one hell of a hole between us ;D
Hope your adventure nets you great experience and better rewards!

Everything has been shipped to its new owner. Thanks for all the interest!
