Reduced! MSX 1 System for sale by owner

I think its a fair price for the US market. Perhaps on the higher end but its in the same price range as you'd have to pay to buy one in europe and have it shipped.

If you post something here (AND SHOUTING NONE THE LESS), you may aswell expect people to respond. According to European standards (and Patsie's inside EU) you are asking an outrageous amount of money for this MSX1. Dvik explained the cause of this, so no need to get all worked up IMHO. Anyway, I hope selling this item won't kill you but please stop abusing caps and don't make other people pay for your own mistakes (I'm referring to you being ripped off and now wanting a good sum of money). Good luck with the sales!

I have to agree with bart and patsie although i have to speak about greece and msx prices.There are some retro computer shops that sell retro computers.

In Greece in some of these shops a typical msx1 system like the one zappsoft recommends is being sold for about 80 euros!?!?!?(yes crazy price but remember here in this country msx is something really retro and rare,on the other hand spectrums are very easy to find and cost so much less here because in the 1980ies and 1990ies spectrums were sold like gums in the shops).

Now for me if the postage is good i would consider to buy this computer from zappsoft mainly because in greece it is so expensive to get a new msx1.

Now i know that for usa it is expensive although you don't have to buy it if you don't like the price.Zappsoft or anyone like him or any ebay seller cant force you.

However Zappsoft i understand that you don't have much experiance from forums.

If you follow the follow guidelines you will be excellent user here.

RULE no 1:Never shout and never write in capitals when you post message.It makes us feel like you are yelling at us or that you are aggressive.For me this is the only mistake.

RULE no 2 and 3 and 4 are like no 1:do not shout or yell by writing sentences in capitals unless it is REALLY a need to do so.

Best regards

Zappsoft no need to apologize!I had similar troubles with a spectrum 128+ heatsink.Only troubles.I paid 70 euros for it and about 30 euros for postage cost, because generaly in order to send something to Greece the greeks have to pay for it (maybe in europe we have some of the most expensive postage costs).The membrane was f*cked up,the power supply too,i needed at least 30-40 more euros to fix it.I spent the money for it.Totally about 150 euros.I know exactly how you feel.

The only reason i told you about the yell and capitals is because i was a victim of this too.
Many years ago when i started to post on forums guess what:I posted messages in capitals.Well more experianced people told me not to do so.

Even if you yell noone is going to attack you and bite you.It's just that we should not yell or shout (unless of course there is a reason for it

Relax and enjoy the good forums here.Everyone is here to accomodate you and help you.

No need to apologize,just try to follow the rules,fasten the belts,no alcohol when you are driving (unless of course you only intend to play Hyper rally from konami )
Remember we were all newbies sometimes in the past hehe

If you are interested send me an email,i know a greek forum that deals with retro computers,there may be people there that could bid on this:Remember in greece this computers -(not bought from ebay of course)- but when bought from retroshops really cost an arm and a leg (who knows?Maybe some greek people don't use ebay a lot?),while spectrums literraly cost nothing (but in greece you can't find the 128+ heatsink model,only the rubber spectrum)

Best regards

It's okay zapp, no need to apologies Good luck with the sales though
