Market research - Vintage computing

🖖Hello everyone,

I am conducting a market research for my project of a marketplace dedicated to vintage computing (from the 70s, 80s and 90s). It is an online platform that will allow enthusiasts to find, buy and sell computers, spare parts, softwares and accessories from that era.
If you are interested in this topic, I would love to have your feedback. To do so, I invite you to answer this short questionnaire that will not take you more than 5 minutes. Your answers will be very useful for me to validate my idea and adapt my offer to your needs.
🔗 To get to the questionnaire, please click on the link : https://form.dragnsurvey.com/survey/r/c8ce5bf8

This questionnaire is completely anonymous.
Thank you in advance for your participation and feel free to share this post with your contacts who might be interested.

All filled in @Mattingly,

It's a good idea to have an international vintage sales site. I would love some Thomson stuff. The trouble for me is the post Brexit import costs and other fees. Just means I won't but anything over the import duty threshold from outside of the UK.

Good luck with the venture though.

Thank you very much Peter !!
Your comments are very relevant and i understand the problem with Brexit import taxes.
It is the same for me when i want to buy vintage computing stuffs (especially Sinclair) from England to France.

So stay tuned on my project, maybe a solution will be found ;-)
