This http://www.ebay.com/itm/AMIGA-1000-KICKSTART-WORKBENCH-EXTRAS-USED-DISKS-VER-1-3-GUARANTEED-WORKING-/221344970277?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item3389303625 annoys me .. he refuses to add to his description that these are copies where he prints the label (zoom in on label) .. not original disks :mad:

Isn't he breaking copyright laws then? Report him to Ebay, and Cloanto :)

Untested A500's usually go for about $50 each.
This has to be because of the chicken lips model right? Or because they are NTSC? 50$ for an untested A500 is more than for a working one here...

Was the chicken lips case only for the very first rev.3 A500s?
I have a chicken lips keyboard and the rev.3 motherboard that it came with, but unfortunately not the case..

I'm so annoyed when I read through old threads like this with links to ebay auctions long gone... Could posters include a screenshot in attachments for the future please? :hat:

Now... How about this:

So why is the 8th 1,075 pounds? It's not stupid bidding, it's a Buy it Now price.

Saves him from re-listing if he expects more of them back in stock. He assumes no one is stupid enough to pay 1000£
