Commodore 64 Ultimate

Summary

Preorder FAQ Is this a Kickstarter? Not quite - this is an official Commodore® preorder with a money-back guarantee. Similar to crowdfunding, every penny goes into manufacturing first, and then to the mission to reboot Commodore itself. By skipping Kickstarter, we avoid big platform fees and pass the savings on to you - just like our founder Jack Tramiel would’ve wanted. Am I charged now or at shipping, and what currency? You’re charged now, in USD (your local currency shows until checkout). Like Kickstarter and others, your preorder funds production at the factory. The rest helps reboot the Commodore brand. Can I get a refund? Absolutely. You’re in control. Cancel anytime before shipping with our no quibble money-back guarantee for a full refund - no questions asked. Have an account?

If they rise a lot before shipping, we may adjust- but only if truly needed to protect Commodore’s future. What about customs duties? We aim to prepay duties (DDP) where possible. In some places (e.g. Norway, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore), you might get a tax refund before shipping. Some countries may still charge customs fees on arrival - these aren’t included and as is commonplace, these are your responsibility. Isn't this just an emulator or r...
