It's a rather rare addition to an A500.

They are not rare, and they are not particularly very good.

It's just that they were highly promoted in games magazines and every kid wanted one but could never afford one.

This makes them highly prized and sort after now. Which pushes the price up.

Gimme a truly rare DCE Viper 530 any day.

For $400 you could get an A4000/40... slightly better if you ask me.

Fair maybe. But no sane person would pay that. They'd just get an A1200 + Blizzard 1230 MKIV for €100 and have a better system.

those sub 100EUR are junk with limited ram expansion capability.

Hardly junk. 32Mbytes is more than any average 030 Amiga owner will ever need. And 1/2 the price of a MKIV

nobody will give you his nice MKIV for less than 100 EUR at this time I assure you.

I am sure given time I could find one, there are lots at €110, I only listed two ;-)

Also it is not given that ebay prices are higher than amibay prices. It really depends on how the listing is made and how people are looking for that device at that time.

Ebay auctions always benefit from "bidding fever" where people bid too much. Just because they have time invested in bidding. Find an Amiga owner who likes you, has more Amiga stuff than his wife will allow him, convince them you'll take good care of it, woo them into thinking it's going to a good home and you can get much better prices.
