This page had gotten to be far too large, I have now reduced the number of items on this page to the last 12 months or so, other items have been archived by year.

 

Despite their limited success in the 1980's, there seems to have been an upsurge in the popularity of Memotech machines with the "retro" computer community in recent years. I have started to keep track of the items coming up on the UK ebay auction site - you may find that this information is a useful guide to the price you can expect to pay if you are looking to pick up a machine from ebay or elsewhere.

I am not sure how long ebay keeps expired items live so I have grabbed a copy of the main advert's photo, along with a brief description and details of the sale. Items with a "sale" price marked in red, were either not sold or the item was ended early.

I will try to keep this page up to date, but will only create new entries after the listing has closed, in the meantime, . . . . . . . .

Check if there is anything from Memotech on ebay UK at the moment

Some simple, and probably obvious buyer's tips . . . .

  • Do you want functional machine or a "collector's" specimen? If you are looking for a model in pristine condition with all of its original accessories in the original packaging, you can expect to pay significantly more than for a working MTX. You are not likely to get a boxed, "as new", machine for much under £200, whilst a functional machine, with power supply, will probably be around £100-£120.

  • Be aware that MTXs are not always "what they say on the tin", for example, an "MTX512" that I bought off ebay has only 32k of RAM, i.e., the case actually houses an MTX500 system board. If the machine is advertised as working, you could ask the seller to do a simple check to determine how much memory is installed.

  • If one is not already shown in the listing, always ask to see a picture of the video/TV output, even just showing the "Ready" prompt. Failure of one or more video RAMs is a common fault, indicated by corrupted characters on the screen. (The fault is relatively easy to repair but requires replacement of one or more of the VRAMs which are not in sockets, soldering is required.)

  • Unless you already have access to a suitable power supply, which was normally provided by the Memotech external transformer or from an FDX system, you will have difficulty sourcing a PSU separately. Be aware of this if you choose to bid on a model with no PSU included.

  • The majority of adverts include words like "Vintage" and "Rare" - Binary Dinosaurs has an interesting and amusing take on "retro" computer adverts on auction sites here.

  • Whilst obviously far less common than a ZX Spectrum and the like, MTX500/512s do come up regularly on ebay. Other models such as the RS128 or MTX512S2, along with Memotech peripherals are much less common.

The chart shows an overview of the sale prices for MTX computers on ebay UK between 2011 and April 2021, the chart is based on working MTX500/512s, sold with a PSU and does not include postage & packing charges. It takes no account of condition or other items included in the sale. The two "outliers" were an MTX500 (£451) and an MTX512 (£536) sold in February 2013, both were boxed and in good condition, but no better than others sold at much lower prices - for some reason, the "market" appears to have had a temporary blip that month.

I find that the prices on ebay bear little relation to the quality of the MTX and have more to do with the luck of the draw. For example, the final auction price for two MTXs, sold around the same time and which might appear to be in the same condition, can be under £100 for one and over £200 for the other. Unless you are in a desperate hurry or you have money to burn, you may be better hanging on for one at a reasonable price, rather then going for one at all costs.

As the trend line shows, prices have been increasing, possibly due to an increase in the number of people getting into retro computing and/or wanting to relive their youth! I used to believe that around £100 for a fully working machine with power supply was a fair price for both buyer and seller, though, at that price, it was unlikely to be boxed and probably not "pristine". Whilst, as you can probably tell from the rest of the website, I am big fan of the MTX computer, I think that some of the prices are just crazy - don't let me stop you though - in fact, if you want to be the first to break the 4-figure ceiling, I could even let you have one of mine 

However, with the upsurge in interest in the MTX, you are probably looking at around £200 for a decent machine and over £300 for a boxed one. Unless money is not an issue for you, I suggest that you take your time in buying, some of the latest prices are just crazy and a more reasonably priced specimen will likely come along soon(ish!).

Memotech MTX512 Home computer and Power Supply

This auction is for an extremely rare Memotech MTX512 Home computer and PSU. It is being sold as spares/repairs as I had problems tuning the TV into the signal.  As you can see from the photos, you can make out a "Ready" prompt and flashing cursor which moves when you type but alas, I couldn't get it to tune in any better.  You may get better result with another TV or monitor or it may need repairing...

Memotech MTX512 Vintage Computer Complete

This is an original Memotech MTX512 Computer which  . . is in excellent condition. There is the original power supply and RF lead and 4 Cassette tapes which came with it. There is the Demonstration Tape, A Blank Tape case but no idea where the actual tape went. There is also the Head Cleaning Tape which is UNOPENED and also a game Tape called TOADS. Also included is the manual in excellent condition.
 I did try connecting it up to an LCD TV but the picture was not great, really needs to be on a CRT TV but the computer did power up but the screen filled with characters as shown in the pictures. You could type and see characters appear such as 1234567 etc but it looks to me like through sheer age one of the 4116 RAM chips or a logic gate chip such as an LS74 series IC has gone bad or poor solder joint but the board is in very good clean condition and an easy fix but I dont want to tamper with it.

Memotech MTX 500 with power supply, manual and half polys and box

Listed as not working as could not get a picture on my TV, so no warranties or returns. Item is in very good cosmetic condition (see photos). All screws, rubber feet (on PSU too), and expansion port cover are present.  Also comes with original manual in very nice condition. The power supply is excellent too although there has been some reaction between the cables and poly packaging, but this is purely cosmetic and can be peeled off (if you are patient enough).  I could not get a picture on my TV so assume that it's not working, hence listed as for parts/not working. Also included is an RF TV lead and cassette recorder leads (cassette recorder not supplied). Also included is original cardboard box (in fair condition, see photos), and the bottom half of the polys (see photo).

Very rare and desirable Memotech MTX512 with a box, polystyrene inserts, power supply, manual and aerial cable.  Powers on and all keys work. Seems to be fully functional, but I don't know enough about it to give it a proper test. The box is quite tatty but the polys are in good condition. The cables have the usual whiteness on them. The manual is a bit dog eared and has some pen in it, but no tears. The power supply on these is very exotic and very difficult to find, so this adds to the rarity.

MEMOTECH MTX512 & DMX80 HOME COMPUTER & PRINTER, MINT CONDITION, BOXED, WORKING

This is my Memotech MTX512 vintage 1980s home computer and matching Memotech DMX80 printer, which I've had in my collection for the past couple of years or so. Both come in their original cardboard boxes complete with polystyrene inserts, which are in very good to excellent condition. The condition of the computer and printer themselves are absolutely outstanding. There is not a mark on either, and it's as if they were bought brand new only recently. These are easily of museum quality and would be a superb addition for any retro/vintage collector - I promise you will not be disappointed! As far as I can tell they are both in fully working condition. I have connected the computer up to my TV and written a small BASIC program on the computer (as you can see in the photos). I have also switched the printer on and checked that the feed buttons work properly, and they do. I also inserted a piece of paper and this was detected and partially loaded by the printer. No other testing was able to be done, but I have absolutely no reason to think that the computer and printer would not work exactly as they should. The computer comes with it's original (fully working) power supply, operator's manual, BrunWord word processor and DataFile database software on cassette, UHF TV aerial cable, cassette recorder cable, and five original game cassettes for the MTX - Toado, Chess, Draughts, Pothole Pete, and Astromilon. All of these accessories are in really excellent condition. .

It even has the original expansion port cover which you can see in one of the pictures (these are often lost). Please check the pictures for confirmation and let me know if you need to see any other angles. It's really beautiful, being made of extruded aluminium, anodised black. Of course, it is working fully, and the pictures show it running a small program in BASIC and Toado (to show that tape loading works). I've packaged it in its original box in a cling film wrap then a thick plastic bag in order to protect the pristine finish of the case. It really is museum quality, and would be a fantastic addition to any retrocomputing collection.

Memotech MTX 500 - lovely condition, tested and working

Memotech MTX 500 - lovely condition, tested and working. Condition is used but is in superb condition for age. The black anodised aluminium case is close to original condition, with very little wear.

Comes with original power supply, cassette leads, RF aerial lead, and 2 games on cassette - Blobbo (pacman style game), and Alice in Wonderland - an adventure game.

The computer is tested and working using the RF aerial lead, although to be fair the picture quality does vary depending what sort of TV you are using it with, so only fair to mention this. All keys are tested and working, also in the package is the plastic cover for the expansion slot on the end of the unit. The computer and other related parts all come packed in the bottom of the original polystyrene packaging - there is no top poly, no cardboard box, and no instructions (easily found on the www).

The item is in fair condition, the keyboard is in very good condition with all keys (apart from the 8 function keys) working perfectly - the keyboard is a quality item and lovely to type on - the anodised case is looking a little worn with age although it is not dented, just a few minor marks and scratches, and general age related degradation (see photos for full condition). All screws in the case ends are present and correct. I have stripped down and reassembled the unit and cleaned inside and out. I have put 4 homemade rubber feet on the base of the unit (double sided taped), which can be easily removed if desired.  The unit gives a good picture on my LED TV (see photos) via the included RF aerial lead once tuned in, and the power supply is in good condition with the illuminated switch on the side working as it should.  You are buying the Memotech MTX 500 console, original power supply, RF TV lead, Maxima game on cassette, and cassette leads which I used to successully load the included MTX program MAXIMA.

Memotech MTX500 boxed Home Computer

After digging it out the loft the TV signal seems to be weak-ignore the stripes in the photos that was my camera. The keys all work but some seem a little stiff, It is missing a screw from one end, still boxed although box has some writing on it, still has its original shipping carton and comes with manual. Will put a tape lead in box but I don't think it's the original. Connected the computer to my TV via the monitor output-picture is spot on- I will leave the adaptor with computer so you can connect to AV socket on your TV, although you will need a lead to connect the sound to your TV. Computer is in good cosmetic condition, there is a scratch on back which is shown in pictures, Polly box looks like it's been poked quite a few times, have a look at the pictures

Memotech MTX512 Home Computer

Memotech MTX512 Home Computer. Condition is "Used".

Can’t really tell you much about this as I found it in a loft on an empty property I was refurbishing. It powers up but I don’t have a compatible monitor to test any further.

It comes in polystyrene box with leads, there is also an original sticker as seen in photos saying “Memotech computer users do it 4 million times a second”. It also comes with the original hand book that you can see in the pictures.

Memotech MTX512 Computer Vintage Boxed

Appears to be in great condition - potentially unused? Inherited from a family member who collected technology back in the 1980/90's, and it will have been in its box for decades since without being opened. I can't guarantee it works, because I do not have the facilities to test it.
