FS: Amiga 4000 040
« on: June 21, 2008, 09:40:13 PM »
Hi all,
 Time has come to sell my trusty A4000, it has a buddha card, idefix, dvd drive cd burner, hard drive and floppy, battery has been replaced, it has 2mb chip and 16mb fast ram, it has a toaster and video sync?? card in it, boots and works great comes with cables, and a 15" tv plus mouse, keyboard and joystick i can email anyone photos if you want them, also should mention its in a lovely black pc tower and the original case is also supplied with a spare motherboard, now i honestly don't know what it's worth so if anyone wants to tell me what to expect for it then great, if i don't get any responses then i'll bay it, but would much rather it went to someone on here that would get some good use from it.
 regards, Justin
forgot to mention it has a CF card slot with a 512MB CF card

I understand.

I had a look on various websites and you can expect

£40-80 for the Video Toaster 4000
£60-100 for the TBC-IV (if that is what your SYNC thing is)

Why the Time-Base-Corrector is worth more than the video toaster I dunno...

What car is it?

it's a 1972 BMW 2002 turbo,
 and yes thats exactly what the sync thing is  ;o)

Erm... that's gotta be the ugliest car I've ever seen. The grill makes it look like it has two upturned nostrils :-)

OK i've now decided to list this on Ebay, i think i could end up getting a little more for it as sometimes people get into a bidding war. Thanks to those who responded to this but i think it will go for more than the $60 one person offered me (including shipping! lol)
all the best Justin

Actually, I wonder if any computer shops still sell towers like that one with 5+ 5.25" bays? I would have thought that those towers would have become popular again, what with all the cheap drives and PCI IDE cards. Sigh. (I wonder how many 2GB IDE drives I could fit in such a tower - PC or Amiga - The mind reels...:crazy:...)  


i think this must have been an amiga case as the Zorro slots line up as do all the motherboard connections? am i right?
