Glad to see it, but wow is 300 Euros WAY OVER PRICED. ATX towers can be had for as low as 40 Euro in this quality with free shipping even if you look around. I know Elbox needs to make money in this small market, but this is a bit much dont you think?

I have made tower cases for various Amiga models and know it doesnt cost 150+ to build. You could have sold these for 199 and still do very well. Just something to consider.

This will be way to much to get into the US. I tried to have Elbox ship me a tiny ZIII riser that sells for $12 and they wanted $40 to ship it.

It sucks having to deal with shipping fees this high and small markets i know, but show us some good pictures of this thing!!! If this guy can do a complete system for only $750US WITH a 1200 board, an freaking ACA1221 accelerator,  floppy, DVD-ROM, mouse, keyboard and hard drives shipped to the us for only $60 I know you can do better Elbox!

Yeah, that system has been posted before and it looks really cool.
I can't believe it hasn't sold.

It would probably sell easier if IT had a Shark PPC accelerator in it. :hammer:


They do sell, he builds a couple here and there and sells them as a package.

They do answer, it can just take a few days. I have worked with them a lot getting my 4000T and some cards to play together nice with the Mediator in mine.
