A whole lotta nothin'



Well, I've been offline for over a week, so I figured there would be plenty of CoCo goodness to ogle on eBay, right?  Geez!  Barely any listings for the last two weeks or so.  Pretty dry spell, I'd say.  Couple of things that caught my eye:

eBay: 6 TRS-80 Color Computer Cartridges Radio Shack lot 2 (item 220127468389 end time Jul-09-07 18:47:04 PDT)

This is a nice collection of paks for using. It's got the rare Panic Button and Demolition Derby paks that make the price right for your game playing pleasure. Offered combined shipping with the next lot makes it an attractive set, if you want some plug and play Color Computer fun.

eBay: 6 TRS-80 Color Computer Cartridges Radio Shack 80's (item 220127467534 end time Jul-09-07 18:42:14 PDT)

This one has Androne and Dragon Fire, both of which are pretty rare. You won't go wrong with any of the paks in this lot, though.  I love Color Baseball.  You can control the ball after you hit it, which is just freakin' hysterical. heh...

eBay: Vintage TRS-80 Color Computer Setup! Rare! NR! (item 180135697351 end time Jul-06-07 14:24:02 PDT)

Here's a good looking CoCo 1 in original box with manuals. An Extended BASIC machine by the looks of it, but no word on the memory or cat no.  This CoCo usually had 16K or 64K installed.  32K upgrades were possible, but not as common on this type of CoCo. The seller is also throwing in a rather nice looking CGP-220 color printer.  I'd ask him if he'd drop it to save on the shipping, but complete with manuals in the box, it is somewhat rare as well.  Note the two black dots on the center keyboard. No idea, but it's interesting.  Also includes the CoCo Max pak with tape, which is exceedingly rare.  Even more rare?  That orange label Real Talker pak.  Oh baby!

And I'm afraid that's about it for now.  Tune in and stay tuned!

Angel's Luck,
Capt.
