Mine arrived today.

- Petro has not only signed the box, but also the Amiga. I would have preferred he hadn't personally, as I don't think it will come off :(


If he used a Sharpie or something similar to sign the case, then rubbing alcohol applied with a cotton ball or Q-tip might remove it.  If any of the ink is trapped in the embossed texture of the case, then using a alcohol and a soft tooth brush on it might get that out.

^^^^^Well I have not yet got a response to my e-mail but it's only been 36 hours.
Maybe petro will respond when he has more a1200's.
He's supposed to have 500 so he must have plenty more.

Well it looks like I've missed out :-(

I emailed Petro straight away expressing my interest. I was on the list... I got an email asking for my shipping address, invoice address etc... I replied.... but not heard anything since...
Yours

Surely he will transport more if those 60 sold out this quickly.

Thanks for the welcoming friend...

Was a proud owner of an amiga 500 with an 1084s monitor myself!Then was dumb enough to give it to a cousin of mine!

Hopefully I can get my hands on one of those unused amigas and start my collection too!:biglaugh:

Must say i'm a bit disappointed with mine. It worked fully, but.
* Tape and autograph on the box and on the amiga.
* My can't be new. Box inside were open, Amiga has been opened for sure (guarantee sticker broken, missing a screw underneath).
* Box in not that good condition, yellowed psu.

Obviously, it could have been in better condition. or in worse. Was hoping for one in better. Just remember that when you order this it's a chance. (And the tape and the autograph i could have done without...)

What's with the autograph? Does petro think he is some kind of hero to Amigan's or something?

Talk about ego!

I can't afford one anyway as I've spent too much on my 500's lately. :P

The reason the machines are opened is so that Petro could install limited edition toenail clippings in each one.

Despite being no. 44 on the list, I haven't yet received any word from Petro.
Emailed him twice now. Didn't hear back once.

Clearly, he can't have that much else to do.

Well. I don't think he works much those days.
And even if he does, answering an email takes no more than 5 minutes.
 
Oh well. Guess my dream of ever owning an Amiga 1200 will not fulfill itself after all :(

You mean, contact Petro, wait for the approaching of the year 2020 and buy a, by then, very dusty and probably leaked lot.
