[Coco] Auctions

[rietveld rietveld]

I think u will be surprised at how much people will pay for something that is branded RS or Tandy. If I didn't already have one I would gladly pay that much for another piece of the coco family.

I believe my wife set the starting bid according to other auctions.  If $10 is too steep and it does not sell, we'll relist it at $5.

Thanks for looking! :)

Ji think John Linville talked a bit about converting a modem pak to a rs232 pak  in a tech segment on the coco crew podcast.

Direct Connect Modem Pak?  Are they actually worth anything?
I have one I was thinking of cannibalizing into a regular RS-232 Pak.

The stragglers are now up:



Untestable CoCo3 motherboard and parts:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/122896517957

Direct Connect Modem Pak:   https://www.ebay.com/itm/122896519518

Floppy Drive Controller (26-3029):   https://www.ebay.com/itm/122895919874



I inherited the motherboard, so I have no information about its condition.
There are clipped components and bent caps (as noted in the auction).  It does not have any telltale signs that the smoke was let out.



Thanks for looking - this is food money for my family while we get our business off the ground.



Kind Regards,



Ty

Hello folks,



My last message was OT about my business fundraiser.  This one is on-topic.
To raise a bit of cash, we started going through old boxes looking for things to sell - we found my old CoCo stuff.  As my hands are full with the business, my wife is doing the listings.



There is one up right now (CoCo3 only @
https://www.ebay.com/itm/122883569506).  As she has time, 2+ other listings will go up.  One is a lot of cartridges, another is a modified/mangled/untestable CoCo3 board with spare ICs.  I am not sure how she will divide the other items (deluxe joystick, cassette recorder, direct connect modem pak, etc.).



Just a heads-up in case anyone is interested.  Have a great new year!



Kind Regards,



Ty
