Found all of these at a garage sale. I have no intention on scrapping them, but I am curious as to their value. Also scored an older Compaq tower, complete and at least 10 pounds of THHN. Grand total of $17.00. Dont forget the garage sales folks, theres still some good deals to be made out there! The Commodore in the box is not new, it appears to have been used then put away.

Makes me I'd never sold my old one. I didnt even know they made a modem for the Vic, that's gotta be rare nowadays. Sweet find

I think you need a min 14.4kbs modem to get on the internet (and a dial up account) I use to get on BBS's with my C= 64 and 300 baud modem.

great find - as IT scrapping makes the survivors more and more rare

Where do you reside, thirsty? Doubt it is close enough for me to help you test them all, but worth a shot. Would be happy to if you were close.
Did I mention that those pictures made me happy in my pants?
No power supplies for the old machines? just for the newer one? I don't have one of the newer models so am not sure if they use the same power supplies.

LOL! The power supply was able to fit all of them except one of the VIC 20's. It has a different type of inlet I guess. All of them power up as far as showing the red light turning on, except the one VIC 20 of course. I didnt try the printer either. I will be posting these units for sale in the classifieds as a heads up Parrot, shipping from NY to FL shouldnt be that bad ; ) lol!
