just wondering if anyone had a spare kempston adaptor they wanted to give a good home?

i will pay a couple of quid + postage for it, and would also be interested in a +2A / +3 PSU, although i realise the likelyhood of anyone parting with this is much rarer.


the thing is, my +3 has just died, and i havent time to work out how to fix it atm, and my +2A psu is lost, and so needs replacing anyway.

this whole thing is being done because of a speccy score competition going on here: http://retrogamingscoreboard.frih.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=219 (all are welcome to join btw) - i was going to play on my +3, but can no longer. :( instead i would use my speccy + , but cant plug a joystick in, and i've always wanted a kempston adaptor anyway.

i trundled through my loft looking for either a kempston (think they all go chucked out) or the psu, but to no avail. however, i found some amiga stuff if anyone fancies a swap. some lowly 1/2 meg Simm chips, kickstart 3.0 roms and a cd32 (sx-1) expansion module for anyone interested.

anyhoo. thats all for now. any offers etc appriciated thanks.]]> https://worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/13048/wanted-zx81-to-good-home Fri, 08 Sep 2006 13:50:14 +0000 Timppa 13048@/forums/discussions https://worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/12977/wanted-dun-darach-marsport Sat, 02 Sep 2006 13:19:38 +0000 CUCHULAINN 12977@/forums/discussions

I'm planning to do some joystick repairs / experiments.

If they had the extra bit of grey wire that leads to an SJS-wired (+2/+3) plug as well, that would be even better.

I know that I could cannibalise some joysticks, but I don't have that many joysticks and I'm not that keen on breaking stuff that's already working.

I'm looking for more people to trade tapes with, or simply just buy tapes from.. Interested in all 8-bit platforms, not just Sinclairs.. I have a lot to trade with too.

Please send me your lists if you have something you wish to sell or swap. I'd also be happy to accept your wishlist, if you have one.. (as long as it's not a link to the MIA section, that much is obvious ;))

I'm also happy to buy large lots, should you require to offload something in one go.

Check my eBay feedback for some reassurance if you wish, it's the same user name as in here. :)

Send me a PM if you're interested, thanks!]]> https://worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/12622/128k-heatsink-or-2-grey Tue, 25 Jul 2006 10:11:51 +0000 de Vandemar Croup 12622@/forums/discussions

(Bit effed off cos I've owned this TWICE before!! One 'went missing' in a shared house, the other got nabbed when I was burgled! So I know there's at least two out there!!)

Also, would like some +128k Spectrums. That is the issue after the +48k, but before the (apologies) awful Amstrad keyboard issues with integral cassette.

I believe this was the best issue - best looking too!

It is the 3 channel sound abilities I am really after.

May also buy some 48s and +48s.

Am building up a Spectrum music chain!

It was a game for multiple players, involving moving their coloured arrows around to attack stars - the number of stars held was equal to the number of moves they got each turn.

Unfortunately, I have not a clue what magazine it was in. I can only confirm that it must have been in a magazine in 1984 as we did not get a Spectrum until December 1983 and we were definitely playing Interstellar Intrigue before we moved house in December 1984.

It was a brilliant game of strategy and I think it would be much appreciated if we could obtain it again.]]> https://worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/12152/book-project-reminder Fri, 02 Jun 2006 22:29:23 +0000 Steve(spt) 12152@/forums/discussions

Really, I'm interested in any speccy and accessories that's working (except mebbe the +3) and I'm willing to pay somewhere around £37, so if anyone has something lying around they don't need and can arrange for cheaper but reliable shipping to Gothenburg, Sweden, you can maybe get a good deal.

email me if you do!

The following guidelines are designed to make your WoS experience more enjoyable.

*MOST IMPORTANT: POLITENESS*

These are "family-friendly" forums visited by people of all nationalities, races, ages and backgrounds. These guidelines (and especially the ones politeness) are intended to maintain this "family-friendly" atmosphere.

* Keep the tone and content of your posts respectful and polite (even if you're angry about something).

* Rudeness has no place on these forums. Friendly banter is a part of WoS, but please don't post something you wouldn't say to a friend.

* Do not attack, harass, threaten or insult other forum members, either in public or via PM.

* We all swear every now & then, but please try to keep it at a minimum. Remember - there may be children watching.


*THE OTHER GUIDLINES*

A) No private message spam. No affiliate links.

B) No information about how to obtain unlawful copies of denied games. Click here to find current copyright status.

C) Discussions of religions or religious philosophies, cultural differences, sex, sexual orientation, freedom of speech, politics and governments tend to end in flame wars and trading insults. Please remember that the majority of these discussions end up being locked.

D) No racism. Again, friendly banter is a part of WoS, however, directly insulting someone because of their race is not acceptable.

E) When in doubt, DO NOT POST!

F) Finally, ignorance is no excuse. It is a requirement of Forum participation that all members read and agree with these guidelines. It's a total waste of time saying "I didn't read them" after an issue is raised!]]> https://worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/11830/wafadrive-cartridge-wanted Sat, 06 May 2006 12:19:08 +0000 gregctaylor 11830@/forums/discussions
