Subject: Domesday Gear on E-Bay

It went for about ?340.00 and it was LV ROM player, Domesday Discs,
Master SCSI interface, and SCSI Ribbon cable and AIV manual.

In other words, the rarest bits of the Domesday System, although it looked
like the disc set only included the white disc envelopes and not the fold-out
Domesday box.

Surprisingly, I've never had any problems with laserdisc players being
sent by post.  I've managed to collect 6 over the last five years, although
not all are Domesday ones, and 4 of these arrived in the post intact. The other
two were delivered by the owners, one locally and one all the way from Kent
to the North-West.

I'm not sure about shipping overseas though!  I would suggest you buy an
extra aeroplane ticket and strap it in on the next seat to you!!!

Best wishes,



Ian

Yeah - I've got to ship mine across the pond at some point, not sure quite how 
to go about it yet. I think I might pull all the boards and pack those 
separately (and make sure the laser's well secured!)

What was the ebay setup? How much did it go for?

cheers

Jules
