No Amiga 1000s?

[motrucker]

Here in the States ebay has had more than a few listed for reasonable prices. I even saw one at a local flea market that worked for $125.00 with 2Mb ram upgrade and 1080 monitor.  
I notice that some of the ebay listings are actually in Canada.
Don't seem to be scarce here, anyway.

I don't know what the deal is. I just saw 2 working A1000s in a Baltimore (Glen Burnie) flea market for $100.00 each with original box, keyboards and mice (and the 256K RAM add on). They were both in great shape, and the seller had them running demos at his stall. People were trying get them for $50.00 or less....
Have Amiga users turned into cheapskates?!

It's Baltimore.  Sure, you could pay $100 for it, but then someone in your neighbourhood will buy it for $5 the next day from the crack head that robbed your house.

Maybe in the section you live in, but that area is fine, as is most of Baltimore these days.

I posted several A1000s in the silly ebay prices thread over the past several weeks. ebay US has had loads of A1000s for fair prices ($150.00 or less).

Here's an A1000 with a Microbotics 2Mb sidecar for 99.99. The keyboard is missing two key caps, but all in all it's not a bad deal. The seller has a 100% feedback record too. This is only one of several on ebay right now.
