Hello everybody, I'm hoping to sell my Commodore 128 computer system. It's in great working order and comes with a ton of disk games, many (mostly the obscure titles) still boxed and complete.
Due to the sheer volume of stuff that comes with it, I'm looking for a local pick-up in Stoneham, MA (or will deliver within 30-ish miles for an extra fee). I can get pics, but some of the highlights of the collection include:
Commodore 1902A Monitor, 1571 disk drive, leather cover for Monitor & Keyboard (edit: monitor cover may be missing- I'll have to look around for it), 2 identical 3rd-party joysticks, and a couple of random programming books.
Several COMPLETE BOXED disk games including:
Red Storm Rising with manual (book, really) and keyboard overlays, Leather Goddesses of Phobos complete with comic & scratch-n-sniff card, The Three Stooges, and many more.
Loose disk games including Maniac Mansion, Zak McKracken, and several 80's game shows, among others like Gauntlet, Ms. Pac-Man and WizBall.
One more highlight? Rootin' Tootin', with box.
I can take pictures if you want to see it in action.
Asking $75 for the lot, and I'm putting it up here before it hits Craigslist. Thanks!

That's a nice fair price for that setup. Too bad I am far away. Somebody grab this! :)

That is almost worth the drive to go pick it up.

Yeah, there was waaay more stuff that came with it when I bought it, but when I moved to Stoneham just over a year ago, I ended up purging all the old issues of "Run" and a bunch of extra packaging/non-working disks/productivity software. The guy I bought it from 3 years ago put some serious love into it, and I wanted to do my best to keep it going. I'm just in need of both money and space now with my wedding 3 months away, and to be honest, as much as I love having it, I just don't have time to play it that often anymore.
Hopefully somebody can give it a nice home :)

hmmm. I really want that monitor... :D

How far is Stoneham from coastal New Hampshire?

I unfortunately do not have Lazy Jones... As for my distance from coastal NH, are you talking Portsmouth or Hampton? I'm about 45 minutes from Hampton, at the intersections of I-95 and I-93.

I live right next to Hampton, so that's not too far, and on a day I'm not working I could meet you halfway in Amesbury or Haverhill if either of those help.

You have a PM, btw :)
