Got it off Craigslist for $30, probably the second most interesting meeting from that site. Anyways it has the box and Styrofoam for both the C64 and Floppy Drive, cords and everything. Kick is that I don't have a tv to see if it works! I plugged it in just to see if the power light will turn on, it does... sort of. Light comes on bright but immediately dims slowly until it fades away. Quick Google search tells me maybe the PSU is old or maybe a few other things may be wrong inside the computer.
Not really attached to the C64, it was introduced over 10 years before I was born and have never seen one in person. I just got it to see what the most popular PC was like. I think I will just clean it up and put it back on Craigslist to see if I can get my money back or a little more. On a side note there is another C64 with a Zenith amber monitor, tape drive, floppy drive, and a nice full box of games and software for $120, it seemed like a decent deal but would like your input.
