Description from the seller

Professional Set Commodore CBM 8032-32 B + Original Printer – Fully Functional – Vintage Computer Gold Era

Lot Overview
Incredible opportunity for retrocomputing collectors: a complete Commodore CBM 8032-32 B (PET series) set accompanied by its dedicated original printer. This system represented the ultimate workstation for offices and universities in the early 1980s.
The unit was produced in West Germany, a synonym of robustness and reliability of the era.
Lot Components
1. Commodore CBM 8032-32 B Computer: * 12" green-phosphor integrated monitor (80 columns).
• Extended "Business" keyboard with numeric keypad.
• Original case with intact serial label.
2. Original Commodore Printer:
• Included in the lot and tested together with the computer.
• Coordinated design with the 8000 series.
Technical and Running Conditions
• Function Test: Both the computer and the printer have been tested and are perfectly functioning. On power-up, the CBM 8032 properly boots the Commodore BASIC 4.0 operating system.
• Monitor: Sharp and stable image (as visible in the photos).
• Keyboard: All keys respond correctly.
• Printer: Operative and ready to use.
Aesthetic Condition
• The set retains the original “lived-in” charm. The case shows the typical color shift of plastics from that era (natural yellowing) which certifies its authenticity.
• On the computer chassis there is a trace of vintage adhesive tape, easily treatable, but left in place to preserve patina.
• Power cables intact.
Shipping and Packaging
Given the delicacy of the CRT monitor and the overall weight of the two pieces (computer + printer), the lot will be shipped with reinforced professional packaging. Specific cushioning materials will be used to ensure the set arrives intact at its destination.
