mr JJB's services of the Amiga Repair Center France are AWESOME and has helped many amiga hardware to continue living. I have sent him much hardware and always was pleased to get it repaired.
Surelly you pay a price for that but he might be the ONLY one to actually know/care/repair amiga hardware!
I am sure he did not charge you 190e to get a 060 accelerator without scsi/ram, surelly he told you of the risks and if you are willing to pay the price...? He is not a thief, and ALL the damaged csppc's I have known returned from him had only the ppc disabled and worked like a normal MKIII card. Yours is the first I see that has no scsi/ram !
Sorry BUT there is also ANTHONY in New Zealand and he just as good i have bought lots of things from him (chips) and i know people that have sent him broken boards and he has repaired them so Amiga Repair Centre France IS NOT the only place and i also suspect there are others who would do repairs.
But with all repairs there should be atleast a mention of what the problem is along with the price I find it hard to believe ARCF doesn't tell people what is wrong with their hardware and just gives them a price, Is this really correct?
PS. i cant find/remember Anthony's account name here in A.org but i do have his email address if anyone wants to talk to him instead of ARCF.
