    Commodore 64: What's it worth (WIW?)

    I picked up a Commodore 64 still in the original box, along with the users guide, datasette 1530 model still in the box, 6 cassette tape programs still in original packaging, original 90 day warranty sheet, power adapter, and cord to connect to the C64 monitor. The box has seen better days. I have no way to test it without having a monitor or way to hook it up to my TV.

    Help me put a number on the whole lot, as is. I realize I'm unable to test it, but I would think the warranty sheet would be an incredible survivor.

    You should hit up the vintage computer forum and see what they have to say. Can probably even find a buyer there.

    Quick search of ebay showed two sold - approx $45 each.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    I missed two of these complete with ALL the accessories, and one of the commodore sx-64 portables at an auction. I threw up a $20 bid not much interest but there was other items I was interested in as soon as I was outbid I left it. The whole ENTIRE lot went for $25.....$5 more than my first bid duh! I'll pay better attention next time.

    You should be able to get $50 for that unit.

    What about the extra memory & the card that lets you use a normal Tv as a screen?
