Who fancies an iconic 33-year-old computer? It's a snip at $50,000 plus. But hurry, there's only just over a day left to bid for it.

.... and no bids so far - I wonder why?   

That must make my original VIC20 worth a bit then?   

I was part of the team who built and modified them for UK use - the power connector in the originals contravened UK electrical safety rules and so the whole import stock had to be reworked!

I also have one of the very first Commodore PET units built in the UK - we built them in Eaglescliffe on Teesside in the 70s, as well as the Commodore line of calculators.
