Sinclair ZX Spectrum +2

The sturdy, compact, game-focused Spectrum +2 by Amstrad remains a great way of enjoying those classic tape-based 8-bit games, and this ZX Spectrum +2 eBay auction is apparently a great chance for grabbing one. Shipping costs are truly sensible, the micro comes with PSU and RF leads and is fully working, the manual is included, and you'll also be getting a nice selection of games and software.

And another fantastic Speccy!

I generally do try and mix things up in Retro Treasures, but I just had to break my (never really revealed) posting rules in order to let you lovely vintage gaming people know about this pretty excellent ZX Spectrum eBay auction. This particular, beautiful Sinclair micro comes with a new membrane for its keyboard, and a very handy composite mod that will allow you to connect it to modern TVs.

The Spectrum on offer also comes a video cable, the Sinclair power supply, and big selection of boxed, complete games. Among them you'll find R-Type, Driller, Carrier Command, Cobra, Match Day II, Bomb Jack, Ikari Warriors, and Batman.

One Fine ZX Spectrum+

It may not look as sleek or unique as the original Speccy models, but the improved keyboard and the reset switch of the ZX Spectrum Plus more than make up for the micro's bulkier size. Other than that it's a lovely Sinclair 8-bit, does everything you'd expect it to, and you can grab one via this ZX Spectrum + eBay auction. The computer comes complete with power supply, leads, a Sony tape player, the official manual, a third party user guide, and a box of games and tapes.

Ant Attack (Quicksilva)

Sandy White's Ant Attack for the ZX Spectrum was a glorious, technically groundbreaking, evocative, and excellently designed game that pioneered 3D graphics on the machine. What's more, saving the boy or girl from the giant ants remains tense and immensely enjoyable to this day, and the game still comes with some amazing cover art. So, do find out more here, and then do consider bidding on an Ant Attack (ZX Spectrum) tape on eBay.

Boxed Sinclair ZX Spectrum 128

It was admittedly slightly under-cooked and a tad late, but we all loved the ZX Spectrum 128. It was a beautiful machine to look at, offered much more RAM than the 48k model, had a pretty decent sound chip, and was meant to be the final Sinclair computer. It is also pretty rare these days, and if you always wanted one you should definitely be looking at this lovely ZX Spectrum 128 eBay auction.

The micro seems to be in good condition (though something might be off with the keyboard), and comes in its original, well-preserved box. The power supply, required cables, and manuals are also included.

ZX Interface 1 for the Spectrum

Expanding the ZX Spectrum with the ZX Interface 1 allows the micro to network itself over simple local area networks of up to 64 (!) Spectrums, adds a RS232 port, and supports up to 8 Microdrives. It was quite the handy little expansion back then, and sounds even more interesting today. Also, you can still bid on one via this ZX Interface 1 eBay auction. The interface comes complete in its excellently preserved box with manual and cables.

Sinclair 128k ZX Spectrum +2 by Amstrad

Many of us hated the fact that Amstrad grabbed Sinclair for pennies, and essentially murdered its innovative soul, but we do have to admit that the ZX Spectrum +2 was a fine, affordable, and very handy micro. It was also unashamedly gaming focused, played nice with monitors and joysticks, sported all the extra 128k model goodies, had a decent keyboard, was properly reliable, and you can grab a fully working one via this ZX Spectrum +2 eBay auction.

The computer on offer comes with two manuals, all required cables, PSU, and a joystick. It is also accompanied by several (boxed) games and utilities including brilliant scrolling beat-'em-up Target; Renegade, classic budget title Super Sprint, and educational package Micro Maths.
