mimo Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 well the 800xl cost me nothing and the RF on it does not work, and the vic has a couple of carts and a cassette recorder with it, the last couple of vic 20's have sold for £40+ on ebay UK. The Saturn is fully modded with a swichless region free mod, light gun, games, 2 controllers, boxed, these go for £60+, and 400's go for a similar price.(although this one was bought not working and was an easy fix+I have 3 other 400s!)

Broken key and missing/bent aluminum strips. (Yorgle????? Got and extra case & keyboard hangin' around?? LOL) The following came in as a set: 520ST SF354 SC1224 version 2 (Detachable power and monitor cables) All power and connection cables, mouse and about 10 boxed software titles, mostly games. Will have to go through and see if there is anything rare. I know one is the Temple of Apshai Trilogy. Cost? None. Birthday present!!!

That's hard to find. I once bought a light gun advertised for Atari but although it has 9-pin connector, it doesn't seem to work with Bug Hunt. It's also smaller in size.

Rybags Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Nice... I payed essentially the same thing (incl postage) not long ago for an XEGS without keyboard. My latest was a couple of weeks ago - keypad and Star Raiders cart for the 2600. Mainly wanted the keypad. That makes probably 4 carts that I've bought for the 2600 but never tested. Pending Paypal/post, bought another A520 modulator... will have to see if I can mod it to work with VBXE, will come in handy for doing video captures rather than fumbling about with the camera.

flashjazzcat Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 The modulator sounds interesting. I may have to set up a separate thread entitled "How is Jon going justify to his wife buying XE number 3". Suggestions appreciated. My original limit had been £25, but with about ten seconds to go I suddenly thought that was rather mean. £32.01 was my winning bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beamer320i Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 (edited) Just took delivery of a 130XE with a Happy drive with controller (nice!) with two boxes of disks, added bonus was the 130XE has a switch at the back for Omniview XE (just got to work out how to use it !)

+bf2k+ Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 A non-working 1050... oh well. It's the first non-working one I've EVER gotten from ebay. Looks like the 12V power supply. I can see where something got in there and shorted the board to the power on/off switch. Looks like Coke. Time to get out the Multi-meter.

barnieg Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Whats the scart output of the 7800 like? Just tested the 7800 I got from ebay yesterday this morning, the rf output has a lot of interference it could probably do with being modified for RGB out. Any one in the UK do these mods?

Barnie RGB Scart Colecovision + another RGB Scart Atari 7800:D No one does the RGB mod to my knowledge, they are an official Atari product, I think it is some sort of piggyback board that they used, maybe I should take one apart and see if it can be reproduced.?. Options for the UK 7800's are limited to the composite/s-video mod, but that is nowhere near as good as the image quality you get from an official Atari RGB 7800, and most LCD tv's do a terrible job with the out of spec output from the 7800, if you can get a picture at all.. And you are right, the rf output on UK 7800's is terrible, much much worse than my Heavy sixer,130xe,jaguar, colecovision etc etc. I may be tempted to sell my spare once it has arrived and checks out ok. If I get time one day I will post some pictures of the RGB output Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastRobPlus Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Have not posted to this thread in a long time. I have not been dormant! I just haven't gotten anything noteworthy enough to share. But - here's something I would have bet did not exist in the wild: I know Zork Trilogy was fairly widely distributed for other platforms, and I know it was advertised in the catalog as being available for the Atari XL/XE, but I had always thought it didn't actually come out for the A8. I guess it did since here it is! This is the first one I've seen in the wild. Not as rare as I thought I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrathchild Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 An old ISA 8-bit graphics card which houses 8 * some 41464 chips 2 of which will be destined for a RAM mod to a 600XL. At just 99 pence for the card and then £4.50 for postage its still seemed cheaper than buying single one or the odd pair that comes along less frequently.
