Hello I was wondering if you knew how much the Zx +2 with joy sticks, defender light gun, manual, plugs and loads of games is worth these days????

I would like to sell.

Thank you.

@001wolfman Not a lot, I'm afraid. The +2 is the most unpopular Spectrum due to its compatibility issues. I sold one recently with around 30 games for only £20.

the +3 wasn't better, it was almost identical to the +2b, but it had a disk drive instead.. a really weird format disk drive. Also they screwed up the sound chip on the +3. Still the +3 was way more convenient with the +3

The Sinclair ZX Spectrum+2 was actually made by Amstrad. Sinclair sold their 'brand' to Amstrad so Amstrad could place it on their machines/computers.

cool video but I can say as you load the tape. is not if you put the tape in the cassette must be loaded or loaded into the cassette tape? is that I do not load out

Those were better than the plus 3. i had a +3 and the games for it broke really easily

Nice review, but you need to relax dude you seem nervous at times.

Nice series of reviews. I never had a Sinclair computer but I've still got my Amstrad CPC 464 and 6128 (the originals, not the plus versions) and they both work perfectly after all these years.
