ApolloBoy Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 I just lost an auction for a NIB 600XL on eBay, and as most of you guys know, I just won a 1050 disk drive on eBay. So now I have a disk drive for a computer I don't have! Please help me out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Not trying to steer you away from Chromizone, but it's not like there won't be any more system auctions on ebay. If I didn't have anything to begin with, I think I would have started with the computer first, maybe try and pick up a whole package, with disk drive, tape drive, etc. You can usually come out cheaper that way. $36 for an untested disk drive is very high. I just sold one to another member here for around $10 plus $5 for shipping. Actually it was for a 2600 cart, plus $5 to cover shipping, But I've seen systems with disk drives for under $30 sometimes, you just have to be patient.

video game addict Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 I actually have one of each to trade. Although my 800XL has a chipped off piece of plastic in the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
