Title: Blizzard 1230 SCSI card for sale
Post by: SamOS39 on July 16, 2007, 10:35:07 AM
Sorry im just trying to advertise this item as much as i can because i didnt write "Amiga" in the title and its hard to find ..

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=017&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=270145351163&rd=1&rd=1

Im selling it so i can get a cheap acelerater/ram expansion card for my A1200 and i need one asap and looking to spend no more than £50 on one.

 :-)

Your first bet is 0,99 GPB... mmmm. Not a serious bid!

I have this one as well.

You can wait untill 50 GPB!! Unless you sell it without RAM!

Well, that's Ebay. It's only the starting bid :-) This could easily fetch 50 pounds since it's pretty sought after by all those people who own just the 1230-IV board without SCSI.

Trust me, people looking for A1200 accelerators WILL find it. To avoid browsing through tons of games which pop up when you just search for "Amiga", I always search for more defined things like Blizzard, Cyberstorm, Picasso etc. Plus, you have the word "Amiga" in the description, which'll help a bit (I usually also search in the complete text, not just the title of the auction).

Anyway, you've got a somewhat higher bid already :-D

It is just life, do not wait untill your moment comes along; when you stop looking for it (what ever that may be), it will appeare right in front of you! (or ; When you stop looking for it, it will find you!)
But that does not mean it have to leave your mind.


I'll watch the Ebay 'clock' and to quote McVenco:

50 pound is not as bad as it look like, it is a good price!

good luck with selling!

You should give the folks on aorg a chance before going to the vulture on eBay! At least that's what I try to do.

24 days is not possible. You can list an auction for a maximum of 10 days...
Still, I hope that someone will come and outbid me, not only for SamOS39's sake, but also for mine, since I actually don't really need the item :-) (but I still wouldn't mind buying it though...)

Have you posted it on other sites too? amigaworld.net, eab.abime.net, amibench.com?

Pah! I'm not in the UK either and that didn't stop me from bidding :-)

Just bid and I'm sure that he'll ship it to the Czech Republic (or wherever), as long as you pay for shipping...

And there was me thinking I was pissing off some sellers when asking them if they ship outside the advertised shipping places, but you guys don't even ask...  8-)

I usually ask, but since it's from an a.org member I felt confident enough to bid without asking :-)

EDIT: ah, it seems I'm not the highest bidder anymore. This might as well still end up good for the seller :-)

I thought you could edit a live description on Ebay  :-? I'm sure I've done that before, but I've had a few :pint: since then  :crazy:
