M/C Auctions As mentioned before, my buddy and I have been picking up, repairing, and selling systems, and we've just started to list. We've already got some interesting stuff, and there is plenty more on the way! Mattel Electronics Intellivoice Voice Synthesis Module eBay Auction -- Item Number: 160605597117 Sears Tele-Games Woody 4-Switch With Games eBay Auction -- Item Number: 160605561681 I still have a Commodore 64 we are futzing with, two C64 cartridges, several 2600 games, and Intellivision, another Intellivoice, and tons and tons of loose carts to go up. These should be up within a couple days, and we haven't even dipped into the rest of our stock we've yet to repair. Hundreds more to come.

-Remove this. This is in the wrong area.-

This is actually, a very, very nice find. Good job! That a/c adapter is not gone, just shove it back in the box, super glue it, and plug it in. Nothing to lose, but everything to gain.

Probably +$700 dollars. Not really the purchases I've made here, but how this site got me hooked on collecting four years ago.

Hate to break it to you, but that is a 128, not a 64.

To put it quite frank, he has the money. Despite the fact I make more then him, I have many more expenses then he does(Family, food, etc.), so he usually has triple what I have in spending money. We have also decided to split joint venture projects fifty-fifty, that was established from the start. Also, thanks for the ideas. I'll try presenting an Apple IIe I have my eye on tomorrow. If not, I'm just going to buy it myself and resell it.

I am sick and tired of auctions like this. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 300563581650 All for a nifty $750.00! I bought one of these, in box, with four controllers and 50 games for 5 dollars at a flea market. For more laughs: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 320710620084 It frustrates me to no end that people DON'T research their items before selling. It would take a measly five minutes of looking on AA to find the value of a 4 switch telegames, a 6 switch VCS, and the value of Donkey Kong**. Even when you put something for sale, it gives you a tool where it compares all the prices of an object with the same name, and gives you an average. It's THAT simple. If you don't, it only makes a horrible time for us collectors, and a horrible time for the seller. Staffen's public message: Research your #$^# items before selling them. **: I've seen way too many white Donkey Kongs for $500.

Don't know if it is too late, but PM sent.

This is an odd question, but I need a computer I can easily buy and resell. Why? Allow me to explain. About a month ago, I began a computer/video-game restoration business. I would buy up vintage computers and video games from local flea markets ad thrift stores, clean them up, and sell them on Ebay. All was going well, until my best friend caught wind of my idea. With his small, growing knowledge of classic video games, he asked(More like demanded) to partner with me, but I allowed it. We picked up a few video game systems off Ebay, and are in the final stages of restoration. However, he is only aimed at video games. No matter what I say, he is convinced there is no vintage computer market, and will not chip in any money in the purchase of one. I've tried convincing him to buy a Vic-20, Ti-99/4a, and a PET, but he has "Never heard of these" and doesn't want to buy them. Basically, to reclaim my business and manhood, I need a cheap, easy computer I can buy and resell to prove we can make money off them. I was thinking the Sinclair 1000 or a Commodore 64, but they usually sell at un-flippable prices on Ebay. Also, the local flea markets have run dry, with nothing really left besides destroyed IBM's. Any ideas?

DEMON ATTACK Cosmic ark is cool though.

I highly doubt he is still hanging around here, but I've been dying to know this. What are your feelings on Jack Tramiel? Is there any kind of rivalry between you and him?

What is your honest opinion on Nolan Bushnell?
