I don't remember the vic-20's ever going for that much. I want to say was just $300 back in early 80-81 when got mine... then the c64 then the 128... the 5 1/2 inch floppy was about as much as the pc...
Yup... turned sound on for vid and it says under 300

In 1979, I bought the TRS-80 for just under $800. A year later, I picked up the VIC-20 for right around $300. I still have them both, plus my C-64, my Atari ST's, my Adam, and my first XT. They all still work too.

Commodore 64 ROCKS! My first computer was an Apple II, and when I went to design school Photoshop came out with their first version. Damn I'm old. LOL

lol... 'trash 80s'... I'd poke fun at ya Danny if I didn't use those in my HS cp class...
c64 and 128s are in the garage beside the atari 2600... tempted to fire them all up and show kids "Pitfall" on the atari and Spy vs Spy on the 128... lol... if I can get them to ignore the Wii for a night... *shaking head*

lol... the rubiks... Dad and I would race on those... he'd pop corner out and 'rebuild' it and I'd solve it... he'd just shake his head when I won... lol
No Asteroids cartridge, have Donkey Kong and Indiana Jones though! Pitfall was always my fav...
