Petro: 500 units new Amiga 1200 Magic Pac

The tone of some of these replies suggests that if you open up a new,old stock box and find an old cheese sandwich instead of a computer, you still have no right to complain.

If the units are used and refurbished then it should have said so in the sales description.

I expect they opened the components to ensure they are in one piece, which is nice of them don't you think?

Not as nice as powering up the units to see if they actually worked.
We have all had to replace drive belts on old computers, did they even do that?
From what I have read here, they did not even blow the dust off the boxes, never mind "opened them up".

what he's actually been doing is driving around Europe in his big van collecting as many used and dirty Escom packs as possible, in order to bring back to his secret layer in Germany for a quick clean up and then flogging them on!

That's why it took 17 years to find these units.
