I've no idea who would be able to read
old Commodore 64 disks...

I am :)

I have a sh*tload of old & new c64 transfer hardware(being a c64
freak, as it's told in the jsw documentary).

Transferring those disks would take me about 15min tops to create
usable emulator-fit copies of them. I could even fix possible errors on the disks(actually, I have many 15-20 year old floppies, and most of them work like they've been made yesterday!)

I have also various turbo-transfer cables for singular "prg" images
(that is, a single program from a c64 disk or tape). I could use them too. C64-emulators don't generally use "snapshots", like speccy

ones.

but we'd better damn well find someone and
make sure that we win the auction for them!

If I wasn't just a poor student going to _mandatory_ army service in a few months, I could do something about this(and would like to,

too).

I will pass your details on to the auction winner, I am sure they
will appreciate your offer.

Although as pointed out some of these disks (source code ones) are
BBC format and some possibley TRS-80 format too.
