[Coco] in need of parts

[Spencer]

 Hello Camillus.
I looked into which systems were Korean.  I'm not an coco aficionado but what I found is the model # indicates a Korean model.  I found models 26-3134, 26-3134A, 26-3134B are Korean models and maybe others; I didn't keep checking.  Both mine are 26-3127B models and one is quality A with the original box.  That one I'll keep until the cows come home even if I never use it again, but everything has a right price. I wouldn't know what a price for it would be anyway.  I don't believe eBay is the right way to gauge a vintage PC value at all.  Always OVERLY inflated.
Good luck!

Yes I have herd of that. I was in the field service business for 43
years. Some times it was a good idea, some times you end up with two
bad parts. I had a stock of parts, so not a big deal. When parts are
limited/rare, it's not such a good idea. You could also blow out the
part you plug in if there is something wrong with the board...

Also You are still gonna end up with one bad system board. Just seems a
bad idea to me. JMO though.

Good luck!
