Try to tell where you´re from, which continent, which state and which city ... postal charges can really lift up the price ...

In Colorado, USA, to be more specific.  But I'll consider getting from anywhere depending on the *total* cost.  BTW, I don't need any monitors and that will help shipping a lot.

That helps a bit. Let´s say in theory that if I would send you a A4000 for free that you still would have to pay 88,50 USD shipping costs, or 66 euro here in (expensive) Belgium ... not much fun eh ?!

If you'll send me a 4000 for free and I had to pay $100USD in shipping, that's fine. :)  Really, if best system is $100 less then system found in USA, and shipping is $100, it's a wash.

I just wanted to make a statement that buying a whole system from overseas is really expensive. But I really can´t give it away, I´m desperately short of money myself. And note also this : if you would get one from Europe, what about the electricity problem of 220 V vs 110 V ??? Suppose you would buy a state of the art A4000 from Germany and plug it in after having waited two weeks before it arrives, and nothing happens because you use another voltage ... wouldn´t that be a pain in the but  :-o

Can get a powersupply for $30 on ebay... and I know how to switch the PAL to NTSC as well.

Anyway, anyone who is selling 4000, please let me know.

I'm considering selling mine, but I'll probably end up parting it out. Here's how it stands atm.

A4000D with latest chips in custom full AT tower
CyberstormPPC 233Mhz / 66Mhz
148MB total (128 on CSPPC, 16 on MB, 2 Chip)
Promtheus PCI with Voodoo 3 3000 and RTL8029AS
40GB UW-SCSI, 20GB IDE, 24X SCSI CDRW
HD floppy disk drive, Lyra KB adapter

I'm almost positive to part it out, unless I get a real good offer for the whole thing. Feel free to make an offer if you dare;-)

@Redrumloa
Hello,

What would you want for the CS PPC?  My card is only a CS MK III, I could offer it in trade or ?

Also, do you have a working Toaster 4000 card?

Thanks,
Jeff

Neofree : "Can get a powersupply for $30 on ebay" ... don´t do that !! Get yourself a brandnew ATX powersupply and use an original A4000 powersupply plug and connect those two together so you can run an A4000 with a beefy 500 Watt  :-o
It looks something like this :

Amiga Stecker 6 pol. -> PC ATX Netzteil
 
Pin 1 (Power Good) -> Pin 8 (normalerweise grau)
Pin 2 (-12 V) -> Pin 12 (normalerweise blau)
Pin 3 (+12) -> Pin 10 (normalerweise gelb)
Pin 4 (GND) -> Pin 3, 5, 7, 13, 15,16 oder 17 (normalerweise schwarz)
Pin 5 (GND) -> Pin 3, 5, 7, 13, 15,16 oder 17 (normalerweise schwarz)
Pin 6 (+5 V) -> Pin 4, 6, 19 oder 20 (normalerweise rot)

Magnetic,

Do you happen to have another copy of the Video Toaster software?  I recently reinstalled, and one of my floppies has gone bad :(  Message me with a price, if you do have one!

Thanks!

I have the toaster software on disks and CDs. CD is 4.0 and 4.1.  Do you want a ISO of the CD?
