EACA EG2000 Color Genie computer	Good working order, though the keyboard will work better after a bit more use. This is a very rare machine which is semi-compatible with Tandy TRS-80 Color-1 computer. I'm going to put this on eBay shortly, unless you get in an offer first! Here's a screen shot of it running.

Tandy TRS-80 Model 1 with Level II 16k Basic.	No cables, no PSU, so not yet tried it out. Could sell it along with the above EG2000.

Pressure rollers and fusers	For HP LJ2,3,4 and 5L. Various types, ask for what you require. (Some sold)
Texas Instruments Microlaser Pro 600 toner cart	Has been tested, according to the label on the box. Feels heavy so I'm convinced it is new, but there are traces of toner dust around due to poor storage (upside down). £10 plus post.
Citizen Overture Developer unit	Part number 7238353 (which doesn't seem to appear on any lists), I think this may be part number CITIZEN-3000001 because it does not look like the developer for a Overture 106, and the 110, 110+ and 112 all take the same developer.

HP JetDirect ETHERNET 10 BASE T RJ45 part number J2340-60001.	This is one of two HP printer network interfaces I have for sale.
