SleepyBear Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I was wondering what the value of an unused Tandy 4d would be worth in orginal box and packaging. Box is quite aged and worn but the machine is new unused. I also have a TRS 80 mini disk in original box and packing never used. Thanks for any input.

Opry99er Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Depends on the market. Problem with most NOS items is that they've never been tested. You don't know what you're getting. You'd think that "It's never been used... it'll work like new"-- but this just isn't the case. Many components go bad even when not used. That said, if it truly is unused--there will be a market for it. Do you have any pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hwlngmad Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I would say it depends on what all comes with the 4d and how spec'd out it is.

1980gamer Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 BITD, I wanted a 4P But thankfully didn't get one No, wanted it... But PC became mainstream at that same time. I lucked out and didn't take a step back. But I liked the basic and TRS-DOS and L-DOS. Oh, the 80's I used to know a poke that would double the clock speed for the 4D... But that was 85-96?? long lost is that detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
