I've just bought up an schools old C64 with a bunch of (probably educational) games but it didn't have a serial cable for the disc drive. So I'm looking for a serial cable for it.

I live in the Netherlands.

If you are able to solder, its easiest to build one by yourself.

otherwise vesalia still got some: http://www.vesalia.de/r0d_commodore_hardware_kabel_adapter.htm
or if you still got a old hifi/video/electronics store close to you, ask for a 6 pole DIN AV cable.

You can make your own? All I read is that is was a special plug.
