12/19/06 Auctions of Note

Auctions of Note for December 19th, 2006:



Around this time last year there was a huge slow down in auctions. Which is most likely explainable by Christmas coming, collectors not buying as much, and folks not listing as much. Unfortunately, it didn't pick back up for awhile. See the old archives here for details.





This year, things are slowing down a bit, but there's still a few juicy items up for grabs. :)



eBay: 4 Vintage TRS 8016K RAM Expansion Module Radio ShackNOS (item 200060787832 end time Dec-26-06 09:11:16 PST)



If you need four RAM expansions for your 10er, well, here ya go!



eBay: 3 Vintage Tandy Orchestra 90 CC Computer Music Coco NOS (item 200060589384 end time Dec-23-06 14:11:45 PST)



While buying in bulk, you might as well pick up 3 NOS Orchestra 90cc paks while you're at it!



eBay: Tandy Radio Shack Multipak Coco Color Computer 3 (item 320063269013 end time Dec-22-06 12:58:37 PST)



MPI Alert! This one has been upgraded to run properly on the CoCo 3. The old MPIs require a SAM chip upgrade to run properly under OS-9 on the CoCo 3. Depending on who you ask, you do or don't need to upgrade if you're just using DECB. I have no idea, either. :) I ran mine on 3124, not upgraded, for years with no problems, but the claim is that data loss and possible damage may occur without the upgrade. Others swear it only affects OS-9 systems. Why worry, either way. Buy this one.



eBay: RAINBOW CO CO MONTHLY "1985 " - " PROGRAMS ON TAPE " (item 300061562134 end time Dec-24-06 00:32:49 PST)



Relisted, 1985 copies of The Rainbow on Tape. Not sure why the relist.



eBay: Tandy Color Computer 3 - 5 GAMES - NM NR (item 170062858005 end time Dec-26-06 18:20:20 PST)



Heh. A bit pricey perhaps.



eBay: Vintage TRS-80 64K Color Computer 2 Works. (item 200060727729 end time Dec-24-06 03:53:48 PST)



Speaking of pricey.



eBay: Computerfacts Technical Data Radio Shack TRS-80 (item 230068106222 end time Dec-23-06 20:51:57 PST)



SAMS Compterfacts for the 26-3002 CoCo. Good series, and pretty darn rare. Seller has three copies, different auctions, for sale.



eBay: Computerfacts Technical Service TRS-80 Color Comp. 2 (item 230068105915 end time Dec-23-06 20:50:44 PST)



Same seller, this one for the CoCo 2, models 26-3134 and 26-3136. Looks like four copies for sale.



eBay: Dragon 32 - GETTING STARTED ON YOUR TRS 80/DRAGON Book (item 330064570557 end time Dec-23-06 13:48:49 PST)



Very rare Dragon book by Tim Hartnell and Robert Young.



eBay: Dragon 32 - DRAGON USER Magazine 1984/11 (item 330064571374 end time Dec-23-06 13:51:51 PST)



This seller has a lot of Dragon User magazines for sale. View the Seller's Store for the complete list of issues.



eBay: Dragon 32 - THE WORKING DRAGON 32 Book 1983 (item 330064570649 end time Dec-23-06 13:49:10 PST)



Listed as "A library of practical subroutines and programs." Several more Dragon books from the U.K. follow. I'll point out that much of the information in these will be of use to CoCo users around the world as well. ;) Quite a few other books, including Games, listed for the Dragon. Have a look!



eBay: Dragon 32 - Virgin CASTLE ADVENTURE 1983 (item 330064569931 end time Dec-23-06 13:46:58 PST)



Same seller also has several Dragon tapes up for auction. CoCo users be aware that many times, these won't work on the Color Computer without modification (assembler experience usually required). Included are some of the very early Microdeal cassettes. The range and originality of a lot of the U.K. software, from numerous publishers, is awesome. Cool stuff!



eBay: Boxed Dragon 32 with Boxed Dragon Joysticks (item 170061078731 end time Dec-20-06 14:29:29 PST)



Complete boxed Dragon 32 with original packing and box. Woo hoo! This will go high.





Angel's Luck,

Capt.
