A bunch? How about 100 fully loaded 486s including a nice 15 of 17 inch CRT for all of them? I wasn't even able to give away ten P166s for free two or three years ago.


Hmmm hook em all up and make a render farm hehe. Guess thats the prob with old stuff, no one wants it if it cant handle Vista etc... make nice unix firewalls though  :-D

I sometimes wonder if people put such a high price on Amiga stuff because its either some mug will no doubt pay or its just greed, I could never justify the expense on old hardware, specially as theres always the chance of it dying soon after receiving it :/

So far Ive spent around £100 on my amiga`s since returning to the scene and have got a nice A500, A600 both freebies, A1200 Blizzard 68030 50mhz 32mb ram external CD drive, A1200 for spares, CDTV, 1084S monitor and a stack of floppies and CD`s.. cant be bad :D

You're entitled to your opinion and  erm...thanks...I think?

I don't know that anything you posted is actually relevant. The Amiga is a collectors/hobby scene and rare items are priced accordingly. If I was ripping people off, this would be on eBay fetching $1k. :D

I'm sure people really appreciate you telling them they shouldn't 'waste' their money...

People are *free* to make offers, heck it might even sell for $400 or whatever people offer...if the demand isn't there, the price will fall accordingly.

The $ is really week right now..for some people $100 = 50p or summat ;)


Soz, wuz having a wee bit of a rant there lol, nowt personal :D Its a buyers and sellers market I guess, actually be interested to see how much it does go for in the end.... Guess I just been away from the Amiga scene too long, went and got all collectable in my absence.  :-D
