Due to the spectacular lack of response.... no.

I'll have to pull it apart again and take some close up shots.

Finally scored myself what I thought is a VIC 1001 via eBay AU: Details: Case is genuine VIC 1001 (metal badges) Definitely solid plastics (unlike other later models I also have) Power input is early 2 prong type Heavy duty metal shielding (no tin foil covered sheet) Manufacturing label states VIC-2...

It originally started out as a normal listing but the seller obviously decided that the item may go too cheap. I should have put a bid in on it whilst it was an open auction.

So how many different Vic20s there is ? US UK Germany (VC20) Swedish/Finnish Japan I recently wanted to bid on an original US VIC 20 (Revision E) with the metal Badge as against the "rainbow" plastic badge... unfortunately the seller wasn't interested in shipping overseas. Perhaps there n...

I'm trying to track down a VIC 1001 (working). I've seen some crazy figures bounced around (most recently an eBay listing for a unit complete with box for about EUR799 - it apparently didn't sell).

Was thinking it would probably be a trivial task for someone with equipment like an uIEC, 1541-III, 1541 Ultimate, IEC-ATA, SD2IEC or MMC2IEC? (or have I misunderstood how these adaptors can be used?)

Finally got myself a working VIC20 and for the first time in many many years I've been able to load programs I wrote close to 28 years ago from my old cassettes - only problem is whilst I can "refresh" the data to help preserve it, for another quarter century it will still be on legacy med...

Now all I need is an NTSC version of the VIC20... except the freight costs are prohibitive... so much good stuff in the EU and US at otherwise reasonable and affordable prices. Kicking myself that I sold my original early model PAL VIC 20 that I originally had from the 80's ... original style KB cap...

I've got two: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260485350250&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1010wt_962 - works with C64 PSU, case condition badly yellowed and stained. Tested working with Datasette and 1541 drive. and http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item...

I've managed to secure a working unit from eBay.

Does any body have a spare or excess VIC20 unit they want to offload at a reasonable price?
