@ ChrisUnionNJ

Ahh... well if you had it shipped all the way from the UK then you did indeed get it at a fair price... :)

Odd how when you compare eBay prices in the UK and US that big box Amigas like the A4000 go at half the price in the US than compared to the UK, and A600s and A1200 are almost double the price in the US than in the UK... :)

My A4000, A3000 where bought from the USA, was cheaper even with delivery then to get them from here. and my CD32 and a A1200 NOS (Amigakit) came from UK again cheaper then if i bought them here in Australia although i have bought another A4000 from Oz (cpu card is not working) the system from America was still cheaper.
O BTW put my name down hope i get one.....


Not that i would crack it and post it on torrent site or anything like that... would never do that... :D

LOL I have to say I like this competition because their has been a lot of people complaining and winging about the price of what is the ultimate PC emulator of Amiga environments and I think thats a shame because it is a great product and does add enough extra nice features over a standard WinUAE install. I've got Amiga Forever 2010 with the free update to 2011 so I dont need to say “I am a cheap ass and want to win a free Amiga Forever 2011 Premium Edition” but I love the idea so respect to DiscreetFX for the competition.

Maybe penny pinchers, except here in Oz we eliminated pennies years ago, so I guess the modern equivalent would be 5 cent pinchers?

How does one make up change? Or is there a round up/convention employed?

It's round up, round down at the register.  $2.99 would appear as $3.00 at the register, as would $3.01...

Electronically the cents are kept.

Wow... good job I've never been to OZ as I would go mental at such ludicrous behaviour (gawd it's almost as absurd as the Workbench copyright crap)... :crazy:

Why oh why oh why... bother to put a price on some thing (ie: $2.99) when you cant even pay that price... Strewth mate what's the phone number of your Prime Minister I think I feel a new mission coming on... ;)

She's a ginger, never argue with a ginger.

BTW, we still have some of the full size £sd coins.  The florin is our 20 cent coin and the shilling our 10 cent coin.  You get a pocket full of 20 cent coins and you develop a hernia.  Oh and the two smallest coins we have are the 5 cent (old sixpence) and the $2 both about the same size, only the $2 is thicker...

That's how all Gas is sold in the U.S.  $3.989 per gallon for example. People don't even notice any more because they sort of hide that last nine and make it a little smaller on the signs.  But if you go buy a 1 gallon of gas I wonder what they charge you?  $3.98 and 9/10 of a penny?  Hold on sir let me get my metal cutters out shave some of this penny off!
