Overpriced. It's just an A4000D model.

OK it has Deneb which is a very desired card, but just a lousy 4mb video card, Cyberstorm is good, sound card and scandoubler adds some pluses...OK a *bit* overpriced only = quite a decent price.

If you did some research on the likes of Amibay you'll probably find it will typically cost more to buy these parts separate at the current going rates, then you need to take into consideration this seller is also accepting best offers!

The price of this stuff has unfortunately skyrocketed in recent years, way back in 2004 I scored a fully loaded A4000 CSPPC /CVISION machine on the German eBay site for about £350, which is afar cry from today's prices when it probably costs near that now for just the graphics card alone.
As you said. But Amibay prices don't dictate what's a decent market price for this kind of lot. But accepting offers is fair in this auction.

And that lot YOU got was a bargain I must say :)

@ bamiga:"lousy 4 meg video card".  Huh?  This card is equal quickest zorro 3 card you can buy, and with 4 MB I happily run 1440x1024 @ 16 bit.  Sure no scan doubler, but with my Indivision plugged into the CV64's pass through it is a brilliant set up.  

Just needs a an AHI soundcard and its the complete classic 68 k amiga.
To be frank I have no personal experience of an A4000 and any of its graphic cards, 4mb just sounds too little to me. When I had BVision it had 8mb and it could run out of graphics mem when I played some game etc. This particular Cybervision must run out memory pretty quickly if you eg. have a nice background pic on your WB and handle some graphics with it at the same time. But zorro III in itself must be quite fast.
