awace Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Just picked up an ancient hacked A800 on eBay. This person not only added a RAM mod (to save dumps?) and what looks like a printer port (check out the wiring to the controller ports), but they also hacked the notepad! (See screen shot.) There's a tiny reset button next to the monitor port that I'll have to trace. I don't want to take the system apart for cleaning until other folks have had a look and offer explanations... I think that was some vt100 morse code reciver transciever for ham radio for RTTY I think I could be wrong but that might be what it was for could be worth looking into seeing if it would still work w a kantronics modem.. I still have some old basic 232 serial programs and some vt100 terminal programs, I almost was going to try RTTY but never got morse code down and never upgraded my ham licence..

awace Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 how about that bum out of Venezuela: ebay id: buysellven 41 negatives this month...made his feedback private...and no one is getting there items after 2 months. now he is using another id to try and sell his stuff again, BEWARE! I guess I didn't know you could change your feedback to "private." I don't understand what Ebay thinks this will do, or how this could affect anybody by the most distasteful of scammers. I looked at their feedback just now, and see what you mean. What good does the withholding of information do? I'm sure there are comments in the feedback about his new alterego... If you mark it private people can only see the scores, and you are unable to sell anything... So he hid it and moved on to a new handle... Stupid really as now he has low feedback which is as bad as negative, especially when looking at an overseas seller in a suspect country (sorry any cool people from Venezuala)... I'm actually wondering if it's a lot of negative feedback about shipping issues, which would be expected as I'm sure with his recent volumne some are delayed or lost and tracking/insurance is not very effective in this case. I have herd of complaints about people not shipping there on ebay.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+wood_jl Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 600XL, new in box. The real deal - actually sealed. The glue was sold old holding it shut, it opened easily, however. Very nice! The same seller has them listed under another auction now. Great job, wrapping the original box in cardboard, so it arrived mint! It's pure bliss to open a new, sealed machine and smell the electronics! eBay Auction -- Item Number: 200662196573 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+orpheuswaking Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 That's a bit more than I would pay, even for a NIB 600xl...

+wood_jl Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 That's a bit more than I would pay, even for a NIB 600xl... Wonder how that seller came across so many, he's been selling them for awhile and it lists more than 10 availible.. Ok, yeah - I didn't say it was dirt cheap, and in my defense, I didn't think the title of the thread was "What's the latest Atari thing(s) you've bought on ebay that was an extremely good deal and cheap enough that I'd buy one." Sure, I'd take one for less. I'd like to have paid $10 plus $5 shipping. Where can I get one for that? I think that getting an ACTUAL new-in-box 25-28 year-old 600XL for $65 ***shipped*** isn't that bad. We're talking new, sealed in-box. We're talking shipped. The actual shipping charge was on the package, that was extremely well-packed. It was $14 and change, so let's round that up less than 50-cents to $15. So $65 was pretty close to $50, plus shipping. Next,. let's compare to what is RELATIVE. In this case, I'd say what is truly relative is another new-in-box 600XL. How fortunate that Best Electronics sells them. (click to enlarge) So it's $70 for one with no box, and $109 for one complete in box. I'll assume that it means "new in sealed box." I've made many orders from Best, and if he shipped this for less than $20, I'd eat my hat. I'm not complaining, but I'm not sure how many orders you've placed, and they're usually Priority Mail, as he chooses. It's been $20 for packages that are less than this. But even if it wasn't, and we'll give benefit of the doubt that he'd ship for $15, that would be $124. If it was $20 (I'll bet) it would be $129. So effectively, here's a brand new-in-box, sealed 25-28-year-old 600XL for APPROXIMATELY HALF of what they're available from, elsewhere. That's why I thought this was worth mentioning. Let me know when we can get one for 1/4 the Best Electronics price, and I'll go in on a bulk purchase, for a second one. I don't object to wanting stuff cheap, but let's be realistic. I think I have been, here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I have been, here. I think that's a very fair price. The more I shop on eBay, the more I'm willing to pay for quality packing and quick shipment. Plus, "new in box" seems to be a relative term on eBay. Which power supply came with it? If it's not the "ingot," then the deal is even better.

You are right it is a good price (and I didn't read it right, with shipping included that makes it a much better deal). Also knowing how well it was packaged makes a difference to, what with all the shitty packages I've received from Ebay sellers. I'm still curious as to where he got so many of them from though. Wonder if he's reselling for a Venezuelan seller. Edited October 20, 2011 by orpheuswaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
