Title: Amiga 500 NOS found!!!!
Post by: Gavilan on November 18, 2009, 09:24:03 PM

Ok...this is "i have to see it to believe it".

The source: a very old PC Store. They "found, at least 8 of this, in the basement"

Look at the pics

And then tell me: how much do you think they are worth?

This guy is asking U$S 350 for each machine

Let the pics speak for themselves, and please gimme your opinion

PD: the machines are located in Argentina. Shipping to USA/Europe is way beyond 100 U$S for each machine, just to let you know

Regards

Sebastian

Well, that is a sight to behold! The price is kinda steep, but still it would be nice to get one.

I think $350 is about right, on eBay I expect you could probably get a tiny bit More as NOS A500s are very very cool... The sort of things you buy and them put into storage and never play with :)

Neat, that blue one was exactly the same packaging that my own 500 came in.

Amazing... Who knows how many NOS Amiga's might still be around. Very nice find.

Price is way OTT when you can get an A500 with mint box in mint unyellowed complete condition in the UK for £30-20 seriously.

10x that amount I would want a NOS A1000 myself sorry.

Even a mint box mint condition original C64 silver label would struggle to achieve that and they are significantly more difficult to find today.

$350 is way to high IMO - but if the guy can get it...

I remember it wasn't long ago NOS A500's were fetching $80-$100 on ePay here in the States. Wasn't long ago at all.... maybe early to mid 2000's. They *are* still out there and crop up from time to time. Same with A1200's. And as others have mentioned, finding some NOS A1000's... now that would be a treat worthy of the $350 tag  :-)

Never mind that, a NOS A3000 is what we all want  ;)
