are we still sharing crazy ebay postings?

:confused: Do people pay that much for scrap in the USA?

Hey that's a bargain. He originally listed that lot for $15,000.

[David Wright]

OK... put it down to cultural difference.

(Shakes head).

Hey Pat, I was being sarcastic. I might give $500 for the lot, if that.

[David Wright]

Ebay is funny with the disparity in sales.
Recently say an Amiga 1000 go for over $800, way over anything I ever saw.

I wonder if those types of sales come back on them due to over zealousness of some buyers who later regret.

6900 for an Amiga 1000. :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Couldnt resist sending a PM (amusing to some element)

see below

Me:

Can i have it for what its worth?

Seller

If you own this, how much would you price it at?

Me:

Depends on if it has everything included it came with. Manuals, boxes, software. Ebay has a search option which will show for how much similar items recently sold. Your offer is unfortunately factor 10 above that.

Seller:

s.

Not talking about what ebay or anyone says it is worth. Asking you if you had this, what would you price it at?
 
Me:

500

Seller:

You don't have much respect for your Amiga.

Me:

It cost 4000 when it was new
I am not greedy, no.

Seller:

You are still not being honest. Not asking what you want to buy it at. $6900 is not greed. $10690 might be. $100690 would be. Get real.

:laughing:
:confused:
:rtfm:

no wonder this country is going down the drain

Enjoy and feel free to send that seller some more comments, he/she seems to like it

To the contrary. There is some sanity left. Nobody has or will bid on this joke.
His reasoning is precious.

This hasn't hit the "crazy" level yet but the current bid is unexpected:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Commodore-Amiga-1200-computer-/282699847566?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255

This amount for a stock A1200, KS 3.0, and no mention of recapping or motherboard rev?

Perhaps because it is a PAL unit?

I may just have to put up my NTSC A1200. It is cleaner than this one.  

Oh yeah:lol:
That one is mine sir. No mention of recapping because as far as I know it hasn’t been. At least I am besting others by including power supply and mouse.

Did get it from a long time amiga fan and user in England.
Go ahead, test the waters.

[David Wright]

Well one stupid mistake I made is listing wrong roms.
This one has 3.1 instead of 3.0 listed. I revised it.

[David Wright]

That is the ultimate ebay selling dick move.
Even if I inadvertently bid not seeing the shipping price, I wouldn't pay.
