Okay, where do I start?

Most people want to see photos, so I've taken a load and uploaded to here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/yi67vok26ppshv18k5d8c/AMnnvtQ6x96FbGWGxB1KaAo?rlkey=kdkcdetmao8n23jjghf79g74i&st=8m1s60sy&dl=0

I confess I haven't turned these devices on in about 18-24 months, prior to that, I was actually using them on a weekly basis, I just haven't been able to use them and as with all things, they may need a little bit of TLC to spring them all back into life.

Amstrad Colour monitor
Amstrad CPC 464 - I believe one is totally standard
Amstrad CPC 464 - with the audio enhancement to plug into external 3.5mm jack to load games from devices

Amstrad CPC 6128 - seems to be okay, internal 3" drive gives error, but used to work, could just be the drive band?
A bag of spare drive bands

2 x external 3" disc drives, both working as they should
a couple of spare drives

Amstrad CPC 6128 - a bit of a Frankenstein this one :laugh: it was a 6128 that I hacked together from spare parts, it is missing the black plastic bottom to the casing, it's super fragile but it did work with both internal and external 3" drives, used to boot into CPM and normal, probably just needs a sanity check that I don't have to debug through

2 x LCD screens that I used as monitors (SCART?) for the machines as per the photos

Amstrad PCW 8512 - with dual disc drives, printer, keyboard etc... and software

Lots of 3" discs with random stuff on them - all the power supplies, cables for monitors included

A bunch of plug in devices for the Amstrad CPCs:
Dandinator CPC
Dandinatore mini dual
ArduiTape
M4 board
UL.I.FAC

a couple of custom boards for connecting to do external IO things like turning LEDs on and off - documented on the wiki, I believe


Amstrad PC 1640 x 2 - I believe they were both working okay, one has minor pixel corrosion in the corner of the LCD screen, don't believe it makes a difference though

and basically, anything else I can find that is useful / Amstrad related will get added! It's all got to go, else it'll get put into land-fill  :-X


as shown in photo's there is also an Amstrad Pen Pad in its box adding to the mix too - and it has not gone all sticky and it has the stylus too!
I will also include, more for decoration, the Amstrad phone with screen - cannot be used anymore, but a nostalgic dust collector  8)



Now, the tricky part.  Price?  Well, you have me at a disadvantage here, I have no idea, make me an offer.

Unfortunately, due to the amount of stuff, the weight and delicacy of the items, it will have to be a PICKUP ONLY from Wiltshire / Somerset border in the UK.  Also, I still travel for work, so I won't be back to the house until Sept 26th-ish. PM me for more details if you are seriously interested.

I was going to go the eBay route, however, there is a lot of things here that I'd prefer to go to the CPC community and if possible for the stuff to then get divided up and sold between you rather than to the highest / lowest bidder on eBay.


Genuine reason for sale - divorce & house sale / downsizing - so cannot keep any toys any more  :'( and yes, to those who have long memories, I do seem to do this once a decade!  :picard:

Ah damn... Here's hoping that in a year or two you'll be here again asking to buy some...
