I see what you mean, Ireland eBay (http://pages.ebay.com/ie/index.html) seems almost empty!!
I don't know how popular the STs were in Ireland, so I don't know how hard it is to "truk dem down" :-)
I know that across St Georges Channel a few were sold... people find them in tips, at car-boot sales, garage sales etc.
If you aren't able to find one like that, you might want to buy one from ebay in the UK, or even Europe? There are often a lot there. http://www.ebay.co.uk/
eg right now (with 2 hours to go) there is an ST for 16 pounds:
"
Atari 520 ST FM Computer. In good condition, including all leads needed, mouse, mat, Kempston joystick etc. Big bundle of disks including lots of classic games (Eg Gods, Blood Money, Xenon 2, Speedball 2, Venus Flytrap etc etc) , and utilities including programming tools such as STOS and Devpac. There's also a whole load of technical demos (eg Carebears, ULM, Dark Side of the Spoon etc) You'll also get a load of bizarre disks of source code as I was learning to program! If nothing else, you can use them as blank disks!
See below for further ifo. Any other queries, then please dont hesitate to get in touch with me, and I'll be happy to help.
Complete original game list : Gods, Blood Money, Xenon 2, Speedball 2, Venus, Menace, Operation Stealth, TUrrican, Turrican 2, Projectyle, E-motion, X-Out, Rtype, Jimmy White Snooker, Forgotten Worlds, Ghouls and Ghosts
11 demo disks
8 development disks (including Stos, Stos compiler, devpac, degas elite)
36 additional disks (including copied games, demo's, source code and so on)
