I got it on ebay from this seller: Johan4771

Ugh, not him again. This is one of the people who buys Amiga stuff in Holland for next to nothing, and sells it for top money on Ebay.

He also almost never does it with auctions, only with Buy It Now. Or, sometimes he sells an item with a BIN of 250 euro, and a starting bid of 200 or something. Now that's just plain thievery.

People like this are one of the reasons why Amiga hardware is so darn expansive....

I doubt if it's a 'hobby'. I've never seen him on any Amiga forum or whereever. He just buys Amiga gear, cleans it up a bit, and sells it for a lot more money... On the dutch ads site www.marktplaats.nl he (and others) keeps bidding on stuff, which then appears on Ebay a while later. If people want to buy Amiga stuff for their own use, fine. If people sell that stuff again after a while to get something else, fine as well. But when people buy Amiga stuff ONLY to make a profit out of it, that just annoys me to death.
