| Type: Home Computer | Country/Region of Manufacture: United Kingdom |

This kit is a real museum-quality collectors item in it's original box, and includes the styrofoam shipping protection, ZX81 clam shell plastic case, membrane keyboard, PC Board, 1 bag ICs and IC sockets, and several other bags of components, ZX81 BASIC Manual, US 110Volt 60HZ ZX81 power supply, and assembly instructions. The date codes on the 5 ICs are from 1982 and 1983 and Sinclair made these kits in 1983 or 1984.
I formed my company in February of 1983 to... support Timex/Sinclair computers. I had 5 employees then and designed, manufactured and sold by mail order, hardware add-ons for the Timex 1000, Timex 2016, and Sinclair ZX81. When the Timex/Sinclair, Atari, Commodore 64, and other early hobby computers stopped being made, we were one of the last companies supplying Timex/Sinclair Memory Modules, books, and more.
I've just been sitting on the few kits I have left, wondering if they should be auctioned at Sotheby's or what. But I can use a bit of extra cash, so I am putting this one up for sale.
Here's your chance to have a real collector's item.
In addition to the kit you will receive:
A MEMOPAK 16K ZX81 Memory Module
A TIMEX Sinclair 1000 Cassette Tape - never opened in original shrink wrap.
Three Books, all in pristine condition:
1 - The INS & OUTS of the TS1000 & ZX81 2 - Basics of Timex/Sinclair TS1500/1000 BASIC 3 - Exploring Timex Sinclair 1500/1000 Graphics
