Taking a short break so the store is closed ATM. Back on the 5th September. Cheers, Phil

Retroleum - The Retro Spares Shop

Important note for US Customers: The US customs fee exemption for low value items was abolished on 29th August 2025 - only imports declared as gifts under $100 USD will now be exempt from import tariffs and admin fees (collected by the postal service prior to delivery). 

Retroleum sells various new, old stock and salvaged components mainly for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64 (but also a few items for the VIC20, C16, Plus4, ZX81 etc). 

I try to keep my delivery charges as low as possible - the actual postage cost of each order is calculated automatically, taking into account the size and weight.  Overseas customers should bear in mind that VAT and admin charges may be charged on arrival by their local mail service before they will release the package - please see this page for more information. I am currently posting orders on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays (orders can be placed any time, but I need a few days away from processing orders each week to build up stock etc).

To help with repairs I have some general fault-finding information here.
