Re: Jurgen Falkenberg Keyboard Interfaces

Rich, how much would the postage be for one Jurgen Falkenberg Keyboard Interface one AT/XT keyboard? Mark Drat does that mean looking for a reasonable sized box to house the damn thing now... :) Within the UK - the postage would be £12 as it would go by courier - cheaper than Royal Mail Large Parce...

SOLD Jurgen Falkenberg Keyboard Interfaces

If anyone wants Jurgen Falkenberg Keyboard Interface to try - I now have two left - they are untested and without any sort of warranty as I am unsure if the pins are any good or will survive transit. Cost £8 plus postage. If you want one of the two AT/XT keyboards (please someone!!) then you can hav...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

Oh, by the way, Rich... you never answered this: if your Gold Cards haven't sold at £165 for months now, how come and the price isn't coming down? Ever? Is there some secret "market force" there? Simple answer - because I don't want to make a loss on them! I bought 3 QL systems complete w...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

As for the Super Gold Cards - yes, as with anything, they can of course be made, well something similar, if it is a complete redesign from scratch - the logic code would need re-writing completely from scratch as the Altera chip used in the Gold Card and Super Gold Card is obsolete and although the...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

If the QL community wants to survive, new active members are needed (see the problems with QUANTA and QL Today). Microdrives are not viable long term. Floppy disks are not viable long term. Emulation is not the answer either (explain to me how I can encourage a young person to use an emulator of an...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

I think that this is an interesting discussion - however, I don't think that skagan will ever see eye to eye with any retro business making a profit, so that those profits can be re-invested in new projects. I do not sell ANYTHING as 'tested when last put away' or guaranteed not to be dead on arriva...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

if there ever is any new peripheral or device developed for the QL in the future, it will be even more overpriced, always according to """The Market Forces"""... which is a self-fulfilling prophecy... isn't it... Actually that is not always the case - I favour the SD c...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

Actually, I never even realised that it was against the forum rules on that site - never having bought anything or sold anything on it, but well no great loss there for me being banned for simply buying goods from someone wanting to sell them! The seller got the price he was looking for, so was happ...

Re: Sinclair QL Floppy Disk Interfaces

I guess it depends on how much you think you would get for your first born! Unfortunately, the value of them is dictated by market forces - you don't find many disk interfaces for sale, let alone Trump Cards, Gold Cards and Super Gold Cards which have been tested and are fully working. I would like ...
