I recently rescued a bunch of Amiga stuff from a friend who was about to take it to the tip. He had now idea about what it was worth as he's been out of the scene since around the time Amiga Active folded.
I don't need any of it because I already have a maxed out A1200 and Amiga One, so I told him I'd get some money for him instead.
I've already auctioned a couple of items. (http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZmretussinQQhtZ-1)
Amongst the other bits and pieces there is a an A1200 Power Tower with an Apollo 060 50Mhz 16MB and a buffered IDE splitter but no hard drive and 3 CD-Roms from the various PCs he's had since.
He had been hoping to give me a hard drive so I could set it all up properly before selling it, but his spare drives were at his parents and he now thinks that they were thrown out by his mother along with some printers, PC bit and possibly some Amiga bits he'd left there.
He had told me I'd have to swap the motherboard out of the Tower for a spare he had as the sound was trashed. Yesterday I got round to testing the various driver disks out to makes sure they still worked and then swapped the motherboards only to find the spare didn't seem perfect either.
So now I'm now wondering if it might be better to split it instead as there seem to be little point in selling such a powerful system with no hard drive and messed up sound.
Will it get as much money that way and what kind of money do the above items get on their own.
