Retroleum - The Retro Spares Shop

8-5-2026: NOTE FOR OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS - Annoyingly, Royal Mail now require a contact phone number to ship to several overseas destinations. To streamline the ordering process I have made it mandatory to supply a valid number during checkout for all non-UK orders (rest assured it will be used for no other purpose).

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). 

Delivery charges are kept 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.
