Came with the floppy drive but no cords whatsoever. Never had one of these things, what should I get for it/ do with it?
Congrats. I have two of them and about 1,000 games. Let me know if you are looking for some game in particular and I can make you a copy.
Anyone willing to sell me one? What should I expect to pay?

If you have trouble with it, ping me. I've fixed several of them over the years and sell a shitload of C64 chips all over the world.
I always wanted to use one of those monitors for a test bench... now i have a 13" tho.
Not sure you can use it (Commodore monitor) for testing boards. It only has composite and a chroma&something else I can't remember for the other connection.
If you can find a monitor for an Amiga 500/2000 or other early machine the it should work. It has several different connection options with one being RGB. If you make an adapter to connect the boards harness to the RGB then it should work like a champ.

Commodore Model 1702 has Luma Chroma (S-Video) and Composite, but Commodore Monitor Model 1084 (any version) also has RGB capabilities. Both monitors require the proper adapter made of course. I actually had been looking everywhere for a very well made Luma/Chroma to S-Video Female so I wouldn't have to make a ghetto looking homemade adapter for my 1702 and I just found one last night...
In case anyone isinterested.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/180940684167?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I'm still hoping to score a Model 1084s (stereo sound model) someday.
I've got both models and have actually been thinking of digging the 1084 out to use when troubleshooting arcade boards.
The Amigas I've got both have scan doublers, so I can use them with VGA to get a much better picture.
I actually use the 1702 with a TI-99/4a. Had to build a cable to connect to the Commodore through composite since the TI usually connected to a TV with a RF box.
