Title: SoftHut still in business?
Post by: TheBilgeRat on January 15, 2011, 05:35:57 AM: Mods, please move if in the wrong spot.

Tried to email softhut today and got a bounced email. Anyone know if they are still around?

Yes, but their website also lists 550mhz AMD k6-2 Amiga DE development boxes for $1000 and CSPPC cards as available.

Post by: eroom on January 15, 2011, 10:08:18 AM: Well they were in business in december as I received an email from joe in reply to a question i had about the gvp 4060.

In case anybody is interested I was asking if they were in stock, they were not.

But in the past ive had to wait a while for them getting back in touch with me, I dont know how many work there, it might just be joe so you may have to wait a bit for him getting back to you.

Paul.

If you think their prices sound high for the ram you should see how much they were selling for on EBay before this new stock was introduced. It really helped stabilize the market and brought some sanity to it.

Well the last time I emailed sales@softhut.com it worked and Joe got back to me but things may have changed since then. I spoke to him about the X1000 and was planning on buying mine from him. I know he hasn't had time to change the web page much because he has other businesses. I'm fairly certain that he has little Amiga stock left, he told me he had some guy come in and take all the software to be auctioned on ebay, but he did mention that he has some A1200s.

I bought some stuff from Software Hut late 2010,...so they are still around, but you have to email sales@softhut.com. Joe may not get back to you immediately but he usually does.

I've bought alot of stuff over the years from software hut and never had a problem.
