sparx Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Hi allI am looking for a working C64 keyboard preferably in or somewhere near to New Zealand.Story is this, someone emigrated there from the UK and a VIC 20 didn't make it in one piece, so if anyone has a breadbin keyboard spare after using the SID, rather than it be thrown away, it will find a good home.Thanks in advanceRegardsSparx Quote
lucem Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Probably shipping from .de is too pricey, but I have at least two C64 keyboards surplus which I'll never need. Quote
/tilted/ Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 I have several C64s in (probably) working condition, in Au.They're in storage. I'd be happy to let them go if someone can use them.EDIT: As in, for only the cost of shipping... Quote
Goblinz Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Hmnn... So many spare C64's in Australia, but none in the UK. I have the bit that everybody wants (SID chip) and just need the rest ??? Think I'm going to bite the bullett soon and get one from ebay, would much rather be playing on a C64 rather than my speccy, Quote
sparx Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks for the offers chaps, Aus is obviously closer to NZ than Germany, so Wilba and /tilted/, it is just the keyboard from a breadbin that is needed, not the whole thing, is that OK?Goblinz, is it a 64C you are after? I have one waiting for you.Thanks again and regardsSparx Quote
/tilted/ Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Just the keyboard should be do-able.Let me know what style you want. I think I have a bit of a selection... Quote

I have one waiting for you.Thanks again and regardsSparxI'm Uk based so postage will be expensive from NZ. I'm only bringing it up in this thread in the hopes that some Uk person will be reading it and take pitty on me.I refuse to get one from ebay as the prices are getting steep and I already have the SID which most people buying them from ebay want. Surely there must be a midiboxer from the Uk with a few spare ones kicking about - It would be good to put use to a machine that's had it's SID pillaged and then been discarded! Quote
sparx Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Posted February 20, 2009 Goblinz and /tilted/You both have PMs!RegardsSparx Quote
sparx Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Posted April 5, 2009 Just a post to say thanks to /tilted/, you are a star and the keyboard is now installed.Thanks to everyone who offered to help too.Cheers.S Quote
