nice item, not sure 'brand new' is quite accurate though. 'As new' or 'like new', fine, but not 'brand new'... sorry...
The fingers on the card look like it has been installed in an Amiga at some point.
I find it hard to believe that someone would have bought this item for large coin and then never touched it. It's only brand new when you get it from the dealer, once you bought it, it's 'used'.
'bout 15 years ago I was in an Amiga dealer, and they had a stack of these things piled on the floor, for like $100 each. Was tempted, but upon remembering it was an XT, why bother?
On ebay, there are no shortage of people who would jump at something like this. I've seen old PCs that were obsolete junk go for large cash at an auction, because people think that they are getting a deal on "a computer".
