Wanted: Amiga A2000 Hardware
« on: November 15, 2007, 10:36:13 PM »
I'm after various Amiga hardware for the A2000. I got one of these free with a SCSI card but needs a new PSU and really could do with more RAM. I don't have a huge budget but I will do my best to make a sensible offer.
Feel free to post or PM if you have anything 2000 related that you don't want.
Thanks for looking. :-)

Just look around the local "car-boots" or put in an ad. I got 5 A500's, RAM's, faulty 1200, 1200T, genlock and loads of other random hardwares and softwares (LOADS of floppys), you name it for £45. Not to mention plenty of VHS's to have a good laugh at. :lol: Well it's still useful I suppose...

I'm 18 and being a student doesn't pay I can tell you!!!

Well then you have nothing to moan about. Got a damn good deal there.I foolishly sold it for a copy of GT4 when it was first out, how wrong I was to do that! >.<

I once got a 1200 with random stuff for £1 and had a HD in it too. You got to be very lucky these days as more and more people are getting into this retro computing stuff and the sellers are starting to realise it.

Forget it. These things sell for about that with a faulty motherboards. Like my uncle's but I don't think he has it anymore. Your best bet is to upgrade the 1200. I'm thinking of retiring my 1200D and putting all the stuff in the 1200T I bought.
But like I said, why not put a wanted AD in the free ads and see who calls? That's how I got my stuff cheap, plus nobody else did that in my area so the Amiga market was all to myself, no competition. Just make sure your polite and positive over the phone and ask how much they would be looking for. Just hope they say "Well I'm just hoping to just get rid of it" (*JACKPOT* lol). Although I couldn't leave a guy who gave me 2 500's, 1 600 and several bits and pieces for nothing so I gave him £10 for his time. :-) It's good fun if you can get the transport.
