"Amiga" items on EBay getting really irratating :(

[marcfrick2112]

Hi, has anyone else noticed the crazy antics regarding 'Amiga' items on EBay lately? Sure, this has been discussed to death,
but is really *&%#@*'ing me off lately.... First item, selling DOpus V. 4, sure it includes thae manual and box, but manual and binary V. 4.16 are on Aminet....
 
Second, maybe 5 1/4" disks are super-duper rare in some areas, but locally I bought 3 10-packs of Maxell disks for about $ 1.99 US each, less than a year ago, at a local hardware store, of all places..

Aside from the fact that Amiga's came with 3 1/2" drives as standard, anyone else agree, or have seen similar 'almost-a-scam' auctions??

...on EBay, everything is 'RARE' or 'VINTAGE'..... :lol:

Ack,I can't get the links to work , sorry....

@Framiga: the point is, why pay for Dopus 4.12, when 4.16 is available for free?? It's not being developed anymore for Amiga.....can you even buy Dopus 4.12 anymore? If so, then I take back my statement.....

@weirdami: OK, I just searched 'Amiga' on EBay, as is my habit, some sellers don't list Amiga items in the right catagory... I know there was a 5 1/4" floppy for Amiga, I thought I mentioned it in my first post... I just thought the price was out of line compared to what I have payed for them recently...

@everyone else: you're right, manual's and boxes are nifty, etc. .... Maybe I need to veer away from EBay for a while, after all, I got my best Amiga deals locally from friends... (1 A4000, 1 A600HD, CD32, about 100 Amiga CD's, and more floppies than I can count (or store)

Who needs thrift shops?

Sorry to irritate so many of you, was just stating my opinion  :-?
