Anyone make anything of/interested in this?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Job-lot-Sinclair-Spectrum-128k-48k-MGT-Plus-D-Twoface_W0QQitemZ120526356960QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_VintageComputing_RL?hash=item1c0fee41e0

Nothing to do with me, only spotted it as there are a couple of 128's in there.

Am generally not too keen on buying eBay stuff personally so will probably stay clear.

    go into comet / dixons and ask for one then ;) hehe

    joking aside thanks for the heads up..

    'm not keen on the minority of ebayers I deal with , 90-95% have been sound.

    I've have problems maybe 4 times, out of a fair few things i bought. I hate being snipe bid with 2 seconds to go OR getting an offer from the seller because the person bidding has renaged or can't read "pick up only" etc

    ...seems too good to be true... Almost worth risking a small amount, just to see if its for real...

    Know what you mean..! I'd like a 128 (along with a lot of people!) but am only after one, refuse to pay too much over the odds & and wouldn't be too upset if I don't end up getting one.

    Fair enough, you're right about the majority of e-Bayers being sound, I just don't like the ridiculous last minute bidding wars that sometimes arise like you mention. Much prefer to use the 'buy now' at a fair price.

    Will watch & see how much it all goes for though, just out of interest!

    I'll bid to a point.. I have a set limit of ?40 and a packet of toffo's.. I'm guessing that'd be a deal too good to miss .. the timing of the auction is bad for me as I'm driving when it's on..

    still I got a +2 for ?5 today (dunno if it works) and a psu free someone sent with a job lot of games that hopefully will work with it.

    if that ?200 collection of spectrums had been hhm 2 days later I'd have been bidding , but it wasn't pay day.haha

    Just a reminder that this lot has only an hour to go, I don`t think I will be bidding as I have other fish to fry, but it is still at a good price..........
    Every time I read that the oldest person in the world has died, I have to do a quick check to see it isn't ME..........

    I'm out too - too many bidders, too little space in my flat for that lot.

    Will bide my time, I know a 128k will eventually appear in one of the local charity shops for a fiver at some point. :roll::roll:
