The scrapping/salvage operation has already commenced (landlord really needs to do sum'n with the space). If you have any last-minute requests, speak now or forever hold. (And yes, Chris...I did dig-up a T2K keyboard...pm me).

What else is left? Do you plan on selling individual pieces?

Do you have any TRS-80 model I disk drives? How about a model 600 for a reasonable price?

Sorry if this has already been answered.
 
TRS-80 Model IV or just a keyboard for a Model IV. Any CoCo stuff here? I am a newbie here and just found out about ComputerHell. Sounds like my kind of place!!!
 
There are some Model IVs there, but I'm not sure about the condition of the keyboards. I do recall that some (or all) have broken/missing keys. Still might be good for parts, if ya don't mind desoldering, etc a few keyswitches.

No model I disk drives, sorry. What is left is a whole buncha stuff, TRS-80, Commodore, IBM (including PCjr), Apple II (& various Macs), Tandy 1000, Monitors, Printers, Lots of software (Which I'll rescue as much as I am able), too much to mention here...

Basically, if you have specific requests, I'll look around and see what I can find.

What are we looking at price-wise for a couple of the 'better looking' Model IV's? I'm sure I can cobble together a working k/b from three. Mine is good for keys and microswitches only. The hole in the back of the PCB from the center support post effectively limits it's usefullnes...

I am also looking for TRS-80/Tandy Color computer hardware. Specifically CoCo3's, Multipak i/f, and disk drives and controllers.


Thanks,

Brian
 
I know the chances are slim, but do you by any chance have an Odyssey 2? I found some boxed games for it at a thrift store & can't wait to get a console to play them on...

EDIT: Also, do you have any cartridge-based Atari 8-bit software?

Yeah, I'm confused too- I thought somebody would pick up the lot?
(And some nights ago, I dreamed it was me!)
 
I am after an old Tandy laptop (model 1100FD, 1110HD, 200, 600, 100/102) and an old, working Mac with as much software/accessories/manuals with it as possible.

My bench is full of broken stuff in need of parts :)

Prices will range from free - to - cheap, depending how much trouble I go to in rescuing the part. My main interest is to save as much as possible from the recyclers, not necessarilly profit. A couple Model IVs, I'd only want about ten bucks for my trouble + shipping cost for whole ones, or I'll pull the parts ya want for a little more cost, but save a bundle on shipping, etc.

The CoCo stuff has all been sold, AFAIK, unless I come across any odds & ends.

No game console stuff at all, with one rather interesting exception. There is an Odyssey store display rack. I don't know how to describe it, but I'll try to take a picture of it if you're interested. It would make a nice display when you do find the console to go with it. Price would be free, if ya cover shipping.

Yes, and no. The buyer was given 45 days to pick it up, but he's more than two months overdue, so the building's owner now considers it abandoned, and he needs to clear it out most ricky-tick (he's losing a couple grand a month for as long as the building remains unoccupied).

How about a NEC Multisync II monitor?
Apple Disk ][s?

Mebbe. Does it have to be a NEC MultiSynch II, or would ya settle for an even better MultiSynch monitor? There's a real nice one I have my eye on. It will be rescued even if ya don't want it. It's on my list of stuff to save. I'm sure there are still a few Apple ][ drives around (I saw a DuoDisk thinggy yesterday).

I have an 1100FD of my own that I'd be willing to sell, but the floppy ain't working (it needs a belt, if you know of any source for them). Pm me if interested.

The SX is no prob, there's about a hundred of 'em down there. HDDs might be a little trickier (I need a couple myself). Not sure if there's any ATs left, I think I sold 'em all but might find a stray or two.
