Title: Wtb: A500
Post by: AmigaFreak on June 24, 2013, 02:46:45 AM

Hi everyone,
I'm looking to buy a A500 that can be in ok to fair shape as long as it works. Along with a workbench diskette (any version, as long as it matches ks rom) and PSU. Mouse would be nice if present. Monitor not needed. Send me a PM or respond here and I'll contact you by PM. Can use PayPal.

EDIT: I've decided to build a new AROS pc after all, but thank you for offering. So never mind everyone on the A500. Any way I don't know how I would use a PAL machine on my NTSC TV any who.

why, and how much are you looking to spend?  I do have one in excellent condition minus coloring  which I may want to part with.  At some point I must part with my classic amigas?

How much do you want for the PAL A500? Sounds interesting... I've been trying to PM you. It says your PM inbox is full, and you cannot accept any more messages until you clear space. :)

I know you said Monitor not needed.
If that means you have an RGB monitor already  (1084s or ?), then great.  PAL is awesome to have for game compatibility.

If you plan on using an A520 or something similar to get composite or s-video tho, it'll be tricky to find a TV in the US that supports PAL.

Good luck..

desiv is right you will need a pal supported monitor but all commodore ones do practically.

@op
Thanks my messages are clear now :)

I have a super duper A500 with all the goodies... I'm in Michigan and I'm willing to let her go at a great price. It's late so I'll get back to this post tomorrow with all the particulars...
