Title: Where do all NOS A1200 come from??
Post by: lillPiP on July 13, 2006, 11:46:27 PM

I have always wondered where the Amigadealers gets their A1200 from????
Someone said India, how many are there in India?? I can see that the A1200 is out of stock sometime and then they are back in stock again! Who in India has them??
I'm really curious about this!

I guess there are maybe still thousand left. They are somewhere in a warehouse.

Aren't they just A1200s assembled from 'new old stock' parts that they sourced from different places?

Somehow I doubt there are still large quantities of shrinkwrapped/sealed C= or AT A1200s floating about.

Afaik they come from a storage which can only be reached when the weather conditions permit it
Some old Escom storehouse in the djungle .  :-D

I guess NOS A1200s will be around for a while, seeing as you can still buy NOS Sinclair ZX81s (http://www.zx81kit.com/)!!!  :-D

Actually I have heard this before, but how can this be possible? Who has access to the warehouse then? And why not get all the units of there at the same time?
