Have been watching an ebay auction for the past week. (Now ended) $686Aud for the Amiga 4000!
That is very cheap - far below the going rate for similar spec Amiga hardware on eBay. The cards alone could be sold separately for more than that.

By the time postage/shipping comes into play (if they are not local) the box is what a bare bones 3gig PC comes in at. One of the bidders has tryed three times now to win, an Amiga. Perhaps he should give up!!
Or perhaps he should bid a realistic amount. You can't compare it to PC hardware, which is by and large worthless after 3 years. Amiga 4000's are sought after.
