Look at the bid history. Looks like a scam to me........seems like its one of his friends bidding against himself in order o boost up the price of the A3000 for his buddy.

why wouls somebody do that?   especially when there is still a few hours left.............thats the dumb way to bod and pay more for something you could have got for half he price. best tim to bid is when there is 5 minutes left.

Most likely a scam.

cash or money order only?  Sound to risky for me!!

I love the part:   have 588 Positive feedbacks and only 28 negatives (most were retaliatory because I gave them a negative first).  So bid with confidence.

"I would be willing to autograph this computer for the winning high bidder"

Oh dear, wouldn't that make it worthless?!  :-D

$125 for an A3000 in decent condition with some ZIP ram 9not picked clean) looks OK to me.  Not much more than that though unless it has some goodies inside video or sound card, etc.  Two hours left to bid though . . . .

If I'm not mistaken, that picture of the A3000 in his auction has been stolen from the BBoAH.

What would an Amiga 3000 with this config be worth:
KS 3.1
16MB in ZIP RAM
CyberStorm MKII 060
64MB fast RAM
CV643D
Ariadne
BCS serial port card
2.1 GB SCSI HDD
OS 3.9

Well, you have quite a collection of vintage Amiga computers so you probably have a good idea what they are worth however here in New Jersey (Not Jersey UK)

KS 3.1 Maybe $45 US
16MB in ZIP RAM $100 cuz its rare
CyberStorm MKII 060 $450 - $550 Ebay crazy money
64MB fast RAM $45 cuz its not so rare
CV643D $200 Ebay crazy money if you can find one
Ariadne $150 if you can find one !
BCS serial port card  2.1 GB SCSI HDD $25
OS 3.9 currently available $75 bucks?

Just my estimation anyway.  Plus $125 for the computer itself.

I tried searching his forum for "amiga.org" and found nothing. I don't like him. He's obnoxious.

It seems that he has removed it now.  

He basically said some rubbish about amiga.org and that any amiga.org member who left to join his forum would get their a.org post count carried over and get free gifts including a warezed OS3.9 CD and then a bunch of slanderous stuff about Wayne.

He is a (in)famous Amiga user.  Also uses the names Boingboss and Retrogeek.  He is very arrogant and has been banned from several forums (which I suppose is why he decided to start his own).  He has become something of a legend around these parts.

"When your post count reaches 25, you can either download the ISO image file of the Amiga Workbench 3.9 CD from my server or I can mail the CD to you"

What? Can“t someone stop the madness!!!!

Two days ago, it was 20 posts only. But when i reached 19, he banned me and deleted all my posts including the words "military specs" :-D

Warez forum!! The OS 3.9 CD is not original!
