Wow... This guy is proud of his A4000T

Yeah, it's a lot of money. I negotiated the final price tag, there was no way I could pay $4000... so I posted an offer and negotiated upon it.

and yes...CDN$3650 was the final price.

Cheers!

When the gas prices were really high in the states, a used hybrid went for more then a new model of the same car.

:admonish: <-- me reading the underlined part above

With all due respect, you Americans don't know the first thing about gas prices around the world. Whereas you pay ~$3 for a gallon of regular gas, here in Europe we pay ~1-1.5 euro per liter - for your understanding that's $5,5-8,3 per gallon!

Oh, and another thing, there's no such thing as regular gasoline where I live - there's premium and even-more-premium (which my car's addicted to) which is obviously is even-more-expensive.

Please, don't get me wrong, I'm not attacking you. I just get seriously nervous when someone who earns 2.8 times more (at an average) pays half the price and still grumbles they're too high... :madashell:

Congratulations Dragster!

The price might have been a bit high in some peoples minds, but you have purchased a mint piece of Amiga history and should be able to enjoy many years of use with that A4000T.  If I had the money to burn I would have tried to get it too.

Let us all know that it arrived in good shape and that it is working well for you.  I am trying to perform a new OS3.9 install on my A4000T and I am having trouble with the floppy drive and a dieing HD that has OS3.9 already on it, as well as troubles with the CSPPC SCSI chain recognition.

We haven't seen the right side of a pound a litre for some time and probably never will again![/off topic]

It was nice to see the Miggy went to a good home though.
Well done on negotiating a better deal fella.
