Its a very clean unit, you will be pleased!

With you, myself and fishy; that's 3 heading south to Victoria... I wonder where the others are headed?


I've sent them to various towns in QLD, VIC and NSW. I've got a few emails so far from people who have received theirs, everyone is happy and seem suprised that they are in such good condition. As I first mentioned ALL systems were tested and working before they were sent by registered mail. I wouldn't sell them if they didn't work ;-) I thought $100 was a fair price that's all, doesn't mean they are crap!

I just expected the case and keyboard to be in worse condition than it is. I still expected it to work fine :)

p.s. I forgot before, so thanks Corrie  :)
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Ive been toying (against all logic) with getting another A1200 lately.  It's good to see people like Corrie selling good hardware for sensible prices.  If I hadnt missed the boat it wouldve been an almost impulse buy at that price.  
But, then I'd have to track down all the essentials again and spend hours getting a new collection together.  

So, good thing I missed out.  I'll stick withWinUAE for a while longer.

No problems mate, you're very welcome. I'm glad to see everyone has received their 1200s and happy that they are as described.

Despite my slightly sarcastic previous post (sour grapes at missing out? :-)), I'd still like a 1200, if anyone in Melbourne has one for sale... :-)

Cheers,

Mike.

Yeah it was a pretty negative comment and I must admit there were some sceptical buyers, but what would be the point of trying to rip people off and charge more money? The reason I joined the Amiga scene many moons ago was the feeling of family I got knowing that there were others who shared my interest and "spoke my language" so to speak. Now there are another 10 Amigas floating around the community and that's good news as far as I'm concerned. Now some people have an extra system or two that they might be able to build on and hopefully show a newcomer to the Amiga. Maybe I'm dreaming but you need to be positive. The bottom line is that all systems were sold in full working condition, no gymicks, no tricks, an A1200HD for $100, that's it :-)

Im glad to see that (thus far) none of these a1200's have made thier way to ebay to be sold at an inflated price too  :)

@Corrie,

You're right, of course and I apologise for lowering the tone of the thread!

And I reckon you've done a great service - as you say an A1200HD for $100 is more than a bargain.

Cheers,

Mike.

I already had a decked out AT A1200.  But it had an unevenly yellowed keyboard and case face. It used to be semi enclosed in a metal case. (Video unit). So the yellowing stood out where it used to be exposed.
Now I have a decked out mint looking AT A1200, And a spare fully working unit just in case.
Thanks to Corrie, and a hundred bucks.
Just out of interest Corrie didn't these AT A1200s come out with 3.1 roms..  You don't have some spare A1200 3.1 roms for sale do you..?

Cheers and thanks.
