These were on sale a while ago on amibay:

I know another bloke who bought one here in australia (definitely not the ebay seller) and it ended up costing more for shipping than the actual CD32 itself. So be mindful of international shipping costs.

To quote the listing "There will be no warranty due to age, even though it's still in it's box  and the unit still has it's new plastic on it, it is still over 20  years old, so I wont warranty it."

The picture shows the item is completely out of the box and scattered about, so still in the box is not quite accurate.  Having bought one myself a while back, and not for $600+, the plastic protecting the CD32 is not heat sealed, but rather a couple of folds and some tape, so whether the plastic is "new" or not is anybody's guess.  Good luck to the seller!

New or not, that's a lot of cash for a machine I own two of already (did have three but I sold one).
Maybe I should sell another one.

Holy feces!  For my two I paid $65 plus about $12 shipping each.  I actually haven't opened one of them, maybe I could earn a few clams...

I'll give you $100 plus shipping for one of yours...  :)

Wish I would have pounced on one sooner when the Chinese dealers were selling 'em for years. $100 shipped. I never thought their inventory would run out. Come to think of it, I wouldn't be surprised if they're just hanging on to them for a while. CD32's, even at $100 shipped, didn't seem to be moving very fast.
