are we still sharing crazy ebay postings?

Not Amiga, but Commodore.

JUST A BOX!!!!

[curtis]

But then you have to box the box up for shipping!

That or the seller will be so stupid to just slap a shipping label on the VIC 20 box and send it like that!

[curtis]

Here's another item.

Not sure what it is, or if it's reasonably priced!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/231693607437

[curtis]

I'd say the best part of this deal is the shipping!  I've picked up a 3000T before and danged near blew out my back!

What do you say about this auction?

[curtis]

Huh?!?!?!?!

An Amber board in an A500?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/141800107614

Curiouser and curiouser...

[curtis]

Yeah, that one qualifies for FUGLY!!!

[curtis]

Interesting item, but HUH?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/221956993979

I can see AT LEAST 2 pins that are broken!  Not too hard to fix if you have decent soldering skills, but the price is WAY out of whack!

IMHO...

[curtis]

Ladies and gentlemen,

Can we please get back on topic?

Or should the mods consider closing this particular thread?

[curtis]

It's back!

The absolute WORST "tower" version of an Amiga 500!

Scroll up and do a search for Amiga and start laughing!  Lots of outrageous stuff there.

And yes, it's ebay.  Just a "gatherer" site.

Okay, needed to share this... granted it's not eBay, and it's not Amiga (Atari in fact).  But this has some pretty ridiculous prices on the page!

My favorite is the Atari 400.. oh, I guess they actually are on eBay.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/201501113860?item=201501113860&vectorid=229466&rmvSB=true

I'm still laughing...

Edit: Oh my god, he says;
This Lot comes with the highly collectable game "Basic" computing language.
Computer programmers will know the significance of this cartridge.
These are becoming very hard to find, and will only go up in price.

And then I find http://www.ebay.com/itm/BASIC-Rev-A-cartridge-Atari-400-800-XL-XE-computer-WORKS-GUARANTEED-2-/252257277989?hash=item3abbb49825:g:C90AAOSwkZhWTs6B

Only a Million pounds, bargin:roflmao:

Looking at the rest of his auctions, that's the only one that is WAY out there!

Wonder if he has some keyboard bounce going on with his "0"?

[curtis]

DANG!!!  Should've hung onto my old 1000.  I could even document it as being the first ever sold in Odessa, TX!  That should add at least another $1000 to the price!  

Not sure if this has been posted here before, but...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-1000-/151426013460?hash=item2341b19914:g:9f4AAOxyDEVSbgDY

I'll take two of those, please! :lol:

[curtis]

Ah.

Then that means this is a "wife ordered" auction.

"Gee honey, I'm trying to sell it, but nobody will buy it."

That guy has been posting that A1000 for sale at a ridiculous price forever. Its been up at least 10 times by now.

[curtis]

For just the box?

Seriously???

[curtis]

I've noticed that computer_preservation tends to post high BIN prices, but they tend to be quite negotiable.

[curtis]

An item is worth exactly what 2 fools say it's worth, a buyer and a seller!

Ain't it the truth...
