No worries Andy,
I was willing to pay as it is a rare mag and will be able to pass it on for most of what I spent and also get it out for everyone to enjoy on the website.

Just hope the car`s Mot is not too bad this month :lol:

Well, as long as everyone is happy, then so am I.

And I know what MOT's can be like - mine went in for its first one last month - bloody garages...!

When I spotted the eBay auction over, I did think "oh shit" but if you just want it for scanning Mort and don't mind passing it onto me when finished, then that's okay by me :)

I've got four copies of Vic Computing already here at home, combined with any Andy can supply and a couple that are up on eBay at the moment, should get me almost all of them I feel...

No worries Mayhem,
Just I`d rather be sure in getting it for everyone to enjoy rather than getting outbid by an unknown collector who would not pass it on afterwards, share the wealth and all that :wink:

Iain and myself would love to get scans of the Vic Computings and I also have won the Commodore Horizons mags if you are interested in those when I have scanned them :)

Mort, do you have a list of mags required to fill holes in your collection? I know what to keep my eyes open for then.

Will have a look to see if any of my Amiga Format/Zero magazines still survive back at my parents next w/end.

BTW, is my memory playing tricks on me or did Jane "Mrs. Jonathan Ross" Goldman write for Zero?

Lo Mort,

Just a quick update - my packing supplies never turned up Saturday, so are you OK waiting a day or 2 for the mags?

Cheers,

Andy

I've won a copy of Vic Computing #1 on eBay, have sent payment.

Between what I had, a couple I got on eBay and those from Andy, I might only be missing volume 1 issue #2 now. The last issue I do have is Aug 83, and seeing as CU proper started Oct 83 (and Vic Computing was bimonthly) then that might have been the last one.

Mayhem will send on Cu issue 0 if you are at home now, mail me your addy again (think I know it pretty well but have lost the paper). And we will sort out how to got about getting the Vic Computings scanned.

Also if anyone knows how many Commodore Horizons there were after March 86 before it merged it would be useful. Also any copies of March 86 onwards would also be great :wink:
