I would NOT recommend buying anything from this guy!! I bought the a500 SCSI side car from him and it didn't work. I sent him a message and he responded with "does the item smell of pee?". I didn't believe someone would be as sick or disturbed as to urinate on an item you bought from them while using his payment method of western union and the risks involved. But sure enough I pulled the ram and found what appeared to be urine on the contacts and pooled inside the sockets. Closer inspection I could see the dried urine all over the board. Again I can't think for the life of me why someone would urinate on an item someone bought and paid for or why you would destroy an Amiga part but this guy actually did. Beware of this very sick and twisted individual.

I'm totally serious. This guy goes by CentralFlordia on Amibay. He has the same exact items listed there as here. His "message" he received is a total lie. The price was listed as $50 plus shipped and that's what I paid. Sorry no "whining" here buddy. I've bought and sold hundreds if Amiga and other vintage computer items and NEVER been this shocked or disgusted. I've got all the original emails I would happily show to anyone. The only reason I'm posting this story is because I was beyond disgusted on so many levels, I hate being ripped off, and hoped to stop this person from doing this again. Take what you want from it but I have no reason to make this up.

Oh and I don't need a refund not asking for one and never have. But you can swing on by anytime buddy. Although I don't think you'll be happy with that outcome.

Photos of emails. I finished reading his post just now. Not sure I would need these as he just admitted he had my address. There are some serious issues with this individual.

Real funny. I guess that's what the cool kids do on Saturday night. Search for someone's FB and post it on a computer forum. You're cool.
