Atari STe 1040

The Atari 1040 STe, the substantially improved version of the classic 520 ST/STfm 16-bit micros featuring 1MB of RAM, and advanced graphics & sound chips was one of the home computers that defined the late '80s and early '90s. Handily, it remains a joy to use, and offers a vast selection of games and other software. Also, this is a very cool Atari 1040 STe eBay auction for a working machine complete with cables, mouse and joystick.

Atari Mega STe

The fine, powerful, and rather rare Atari Mega STe was one of Atari's more professionally focused 16-bit machines. It was also a relatively easy to expand micro, and thus often seen simultaneously serving as both a DTP and music editing computer. Here's an Atari Mega STe eBay auction for a very well preserved machine with keyboard, 4MB of RAM, and TOS 2.06.

Amiga 600: The Wild, The Weird & The Wicked

Yes, the Amiga 600 was a pointless update to Commodore's classic 16-bit machine back in 1992, and that was why it was swiftly discontinued. Today though it's a lovely, compact Amiga that will not take up much desk-space, and will be able to provide you with all the retro gaming & computing you've always wanted. Also, here's a nice, working, and compact Amiga 600 eBay auction.

The micro comes boxed in its original The Wild, The Weird & The Wicked pack box, with 1MB of RAM, manual, cables, mouse, power supply, Deluxe Paint III, Grand Prix, and Push-Over. As an added bonus, you'll also be bidding on three Amiga Format issues, and boxed copies of Sensible Soccer, Theme Park, mini Office, and more.

Macintosh Classic (M0420)

The wonderful and very compact Apple Macintosh Classic computer, an elegant machine with a crisp black & white monitor, is one of my favourite computers of all time. I still haven't managed to grab one, though admittedly this Mac Classic eBay auction is tempting. The Mac on offer is in fine condition, seems to be working great, and comes with all sorts of goodies including the original stickers, HyperCard, manuals, games, lots of disk, and vintage Apple leaflets.

Commodore Amiga 1000

The original Amiga, the Amiga 1000, is one of the most beautiful, innovative, and technically impressive computers ever designed.

This particular computer is apparently in excellent condition. It is clean, fully operational, throoughly tested, and has had both its keyboard and disk drive overhauled.

One seemingly unused Sinclair QL

The design flaws are obvious now, but so is the ambition that was driving the Sinclair QL and eventually turned it into a beautiful, affordable 16-bit computer filled with clever ideas that flopped spectacularly. This Sinclair QL eBay auction, on the other hand, is obviously intriguing, especially considering the micro has most probably never been used.

It does come complete in its original box and the seller ships to most places worldwide.

Amiga 600 HD: The EPIC Pack

The compact Amiga 600 may have seemed rather underwhelming back when it was launched, but we have to admit that it's a lovely and incredibly handy A500 upgrade, that can be a highly desirable 16-bit micro. Especially when it comes (almost) complete in its EPIC collection box as is the case with this Amiga 600HD eBay auction.

Said Amiga 600 comes in the EPIC box with all the original software (Deluxe Paint III, Epic, Myth and Rome), all the manuals, RF lead, power supply, (third party) mouse and all the original inserts. The micro has been upgraded to feature 2MB of RAM and a 40MB hard disk and everything seems to be in excellent condition.

Sinclair QL & Printer

Sinclair's 16-bit business computer, the wonderful if ill thought out Sinclair QL, remains an important micro and a retro computer worth having. Despite being aimed at the professional/serious home user and coming with a variety of business software, the QL also got itself its fair share of gaming software and even some handy peripherals, you see.

As one would expect from a Retro Treasures post, well, here's a pretty excellent Sinqlair QL auction on eBay. The computer comes complete in its box with manuals, power adapter and software (QL Abacus, Archive, Easel and Quill) on microdrive cartridges. It is also accompanied by the equally boxed, dot-matrix Sinclair Printer.

Boxed Texas Instruments TI-99/4A

Having sold over 2 million units and being the first properly affordable (and decent) 16-bit home computer ever, the Texas Instruments TI99/4A is a rather historic micro and the first computer I ever touched. It was a machine with an excellent keyboard, an easy to learn version of BASIC, great sound, decent graphics and dozens of great games. It also is something you can grab via this Texas Instruments TI-99/4A eBay auction.

The computer comes complete in its box and is accompanied by a couple of joysticks, PAL TV encoder, manuals and power supply. The computer is essentially untested, but should probably work fine.

Seller ships to the U.K., Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Australia, U.S., Russia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and Israel.
