Competitive price of A1200?
« on: December 09, 2005, 11:50:48 PM »
I am looking for a A1200 and I was wondering that what would be the competitive price for a basic A1200 nowadays.  You can get a NOS/refurbished A1200(no HD) from AmigaKit of Vesalia for 110-130eur.  Ofcourse the shipping fees of 40-50eur must be added into price.  I have seen auctions (in Finland) where basic A1200 systems have been sold for 60-90eur. So, what could be a reasonable price? :-?

Yeah it's true that EU have cheaper prices!  On the other hand if you by a cheap A1200 with a KickStart 3.0 and worn floppy drive you have to buy a new floppy drive and KS3.1 and that makes overall price higher.

I just hope that I can find a good A1200 with a reasonable price. I can't wait getting my hands onto A1200 again. It's almost 10 years when I did it last time!

Hmm, that sounds pretty good!!! The only con is 3.0 rom, but it doesn't cost much to buy a 3.1 upgrade.  I have a working A500 PSU, but it makes a raucous noice and the power cable is pretty worn out.  :-)  Ofcourse I can buy a replacement PSU from Finland later.

What kind of sum of valuable euros are we talking about, excluding that PSU? :-D
