I have been through the photos and can see a maximum of 50 different cartridge labels which MIGHT contain something which still needs preserving - although at least 10 of those appear to be Spectrum software.... The remaining 40 labels may of course be wrongly labelled, or be home made tapes - certainly I have not even heard of most of them, so that suggests that they are probably not commercial QL software. 1000€ seems an exceptionally high price to pay in the hope of preserving such a small amount of software... - especially if you can only sell the repaired microdrive cartridges for about £1.50 each....

Just wondering how you would preserve QL formatted cartridges without a QL with two good microdrive units.... hmmm.. If it went for 1000€, unfortunately that would be much much more than I think they are worth considering that 50% of them may not work at all, let alone have anything on them! The seller has no idea what is on the tapes if anything ...
