    Power Tower

    Just found this for sale. Given the weight of the Power Tower then the P&P is about right (Everythings solid thick metal apart form the front). Just remember if you do buy this you will need to either buy the 4000 keyboard and the adapter by the same seller or a 1000/2000/3000 keyboard.

    Nice find. I bet it ends much higher than the starting price!

    The case looks in very good condition too.

    I think Zetr0 could have a heart attack if he views the page though with so much hardware pr0n included!

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Just noticed in the sellers feedback that he bought the Power Tower with 1230 IV, keyboard, mouse, sh1t load of games and Phillips monitor for £132.00 1 month ago. Looks like he may make a killing but what he should do is use Parcels2go for his postage as they're dirt cheap. I just sent that Saturn and stuff for £7.20 and it weighed 15Kgs much more than a Power Tower.

    Have you used Parcels2go before? If so how fast is their delivery? And how good is their service? Tracking, time to delivery, insurance cover etc?

    Today was the first time i userd them but they use DHL free £50.00 insurance the delivery i did was economy 48 hours which takes 2-4 working days. You have tracking.
    Tell you what watch my parcel go here and in the DHL type this number JD0002297181605231. And we'll both be able to see what they're like. The buyer recommended them to me so we'll see.

    My A1200 came from UK to Portugal buy Parcels2go, and i took 8 or 9 days i think. After arriving in Portugal, they pass the package to DHL. Parcels2go did a good job but DHL put my A1200 in some store house, and it was lost... but i have a friend in DHL that searchs for it, and find it, the package was open, but then he pick it up and send it to me.
    I dont know about DHL in UK, but in Portugal...

    That is quite interesting. They use quite a few different couriers for the actual deliveries. So parcel2go is really a central courier service rather than a courier themselves.
