This does look very interesting, especially with the Microdisc Drive. I'm also intrigued as to what gems are on those disks and cassettes. It says it comes with OUM issues 55 to 140 - are these particularly valuable? I may have to contact the seller and see if he has the Rhetoric disks as well. I only live one hours drive from the seller so collection is not a problem. Hmm decisions decisions :?

The interested parties could bu the lot and then split the price for the Parta they're Interested In.

Maybe we could organize a group buy? I'd be happy to chip in 100UKP if I could get my hands on a microdrive for my Atmos, finally .. or something like that?

Those other auctions are ridiculously priced and will never sell for that kind of money. I'm going to give this one a miss, I contacted the seller with a question and got a very blunt 'no' reply 3 days later so not the most helpful seller.

Mmmh, honestly, just my humble opinion but I'm not sure, once removed the drives and disks, that the rest is worth 150£.
I'd put 50£ for the OUM mags plus the 3 No Man's Land tapes, and Driver.

It is a tempting auction, however this lot was listed for £300 only a few weeks ago and it is a 'collection only' auction. It's possible the seller may lower the price again if he can't get £250 for it.

Well in case anyone wants to do this, and can collect the item, PM me and I'll pitch some cash in to get this deal among us as a community buy.
