wquatan Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Hi, I'm looking after an Atari Mega ST Top cover, especially because I need the metal contact-plates inside the battery compartment Mine got oxydated due to a battery leak :-( and are broken and therefor completely unuseable. Anyone ? Of course, any link to a place where I could find suitable contact-plates would be appreciated too ! Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past I was already in contact with them. Unfortunatly they have International minimum order amount rules which makes it impossible to acquire it from them. A pitty, I wish myself such company in Europe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, I'll have to check again, because last time was almost a year ago. And I'm not sure if there are no minimum order amounts for the USA too. I'll ask them again Thanks for the offer :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll ask them again Thanks for the offer :-) It is $15 minimum mail order which means I would send him a check or money order via mail so it is slower. Credit card min is $20 and paypal min is $50 which are faster but more expensive. I have ordered from him before so it will be no problem. Just check he has what you need and let me know if you want to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'll have to find it elsewhere (Fingers crossed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz73 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 If that doesn't pan out for you, you might try Bruce at B & C Computervisions. I needed the battery cover and e-mailed him. He said he'd have to take one off a Mega ST, but was willing to do so if I needed it. That being the case, he now has a Mega ST without a battery cover, so he might be willing to part with the lid. It can't hurt to ask! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
