Check out this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2765286477) eBay auction...
Pricey? :-)
-
:lol: Is that someone making a point regarding the high price of old Amiga hardware, or just someone who's a tad stupid?
:-)

WOW! those A1000 has done more than one battle!
It needs an exorcist.
Ciao

I think that this seller is one of those optimistic ones that don't settle for the usual suckers, but tend to look for more R@RE, ultra suckers.
-
Seen that a couple of days ago, and had a normal price... Probably changed it just for a joke? :-?

I'm sure there are ppl with no clue out there... just the other day I saw a 1084s monitor for a startbid of 500$ :-o
-
I'll buy it for $1!
$1! $1! $1!
:-D
-
Heh! You'd have to give me twice that to sell my A1000 and 1080 monitor, 'cause I got TWO megs of RAM!
PS - How much do you think a non-working A3000 Tower is worth? I have no idea what's wrong with it, yet.
-
It's probably Amiga Inc. trying to bring in that much needed cash.
Nah, that'd be too obvious. It's probably Genesi trying to make me THINK it's Amiga Inc trying to bring in that much needed cash.
Yeah.
Can't fool me.
-
Roflmao!!!
-
Wow, why are they selling it so cheep? :roflmao:
-
I asked my wife if she minded we go into debt over this "once in a a lifetime" offer....
I really can't resist...
Man, what a deal......
:-o :-o :-o :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
-
Bit too yellow for me, I'd never get it clean, however I'd pay a bit for a fully working A1000 in good condition, only cause I've always wanted one.

I'm curious what you guys think of the 351st production Amiga ever made. I have an Amiga 1000, serial number 2000351, with the 512k chip ram modification on the motherboard, original keyboard as well (although it's missing 2 keys but the plungers both work fine, nothing is broken - I guess the keys just fell off at some point in storage/transit). It's in really nice condition otherwise, boots fine, good color, no big scratches etc.
Is that worth my time to list it on eBay or should I just "archive" it to the shelf of "I'll toss this out one day". :-)
-
By all means list it, but don't expect the serial number to be a major selling point, especially in that condition.
-
"especially in that condition" ?
It's in great condition, if the two keys were not missing it'd be one of the nicest 1000's to ever hit eBay. :-o
But, if I were buying a 1000, I'd prefer a complete keyboard too, so I see your point.
-
Its down to $20 now. Surely there must have been plenty of offers at 70k. :-P

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh :-) Just meant that people who were attracted to the (moderately) low serial number would be put off, as you say, by the lack of a couple of keys.
-
Well, $20 seems in the realm of realistic, they musta changed it. For the curious among us, what was the price that it started with that was so phenomenal??
And for the guy missing a couple keys, I've got an old mangled keyboard someplace, with a number of missing keys. If the ones you need are among the still present ones you can have them, which are they? Though it will take a while tio dig it out from its tomb, and may still be at my parent's house and not here at mine, but I'll find it eventually if you're interested.

I sure would! They're the F2 key and the 9 key (for an Amiga 1000 keyboard). Appreciate the effort if you decide to try and find them. :-D
