Wanted: Plus 4

I'd like to buy a Plus 4. Anyone got one for sale? Never had one back when, but I'm a Commodore fan and it seems to be a cool computer.
I live in Sweden, so I need a PAL machine.

Thanks,
Niklas Ramsberg (bacon)

I don't think so ;-)

Hi bacon,

I think none of the forum regulars would ever give his Plus/4 away

But at eBay (at least here in Germany) I see a new Plus/4 auction almost every day,
so You could give it a try.

Good Luck,
Norbert

PS: here are some links on Plus/4 auctions:

ebay

Tjena Bacon,
yep, ebay.de is the place to get Plus/4s, C16s, and 1551 drives. The latter cost a bit of money though. ebay.co.uk also have machines every now and then.

Found one on ebay an hour ago!

Actually, ebay was the first place I looked, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to try here too. And I didn't expect anyone to give one away...
Anyway, I used the "Buy it now" option for one on ebay, complete with all manuals and a few tapes, so I should be set. As you said, it was a bit expensive (50 Euro, which will probably add up to ~80 Euro with shipping and all that).
The seller was German. A tip for everyone searching for stuff on e-bay: go to the international (American?) site (www.ebay.com) and use the advanced search option to find sellers from all countries. I've bought a 1541-II drive from Germany and a bunch of Commodore-related books from Australia that way.
A lot of good Commodore stuff always pops up from German sellers, although many of them won't ship outside Germany. Don't know why.

Csabo, if you're reading this: Can I register as a member without being a demo coder? At least I'm a fan of of the Plus 4 (and all other C= Computers).

Thanks Csabo!

The only info I can add is the city I live in: Mölndal.
I hope Swedish characters show up in the forum.
