I win you guys all:

I knew it would go high, but wow! What they hell can you even do with it now??? I let mine go for much less. If you can spend that I dont see why the buyer wouldnt just get a modern AOS4.x machine, top of the lone one at that.

[Acill]

Glad Im not the only one who thought that the price was insane.

Seriously people, I know MorphOS isnt "Amiga" but give it a try and buy yourself a $150 G5 tower. Its way more power than any Amiga accelerator ever was and you can do a lot more with it!

[Acill]

All my amiga needs are met with a stand alone machine setup up to boot directly into Amiga OS 4.1FE classic using the latest UAE. It by far faster than any real amiga I ever owned and works with everything I throw at it.

Does make me wish I save a few of my past machines. Still have my prototype AA3000 put away safe though.

[Acill]

Haha, I have pics of my AA3000 on the big book of amiga. I think mine is the only one on it still. Its basicly an A3000D with AGA and no Amber VGA port or chips is all. Also the DMA parts are not complete or functional even if they were from my understanding.

[Acill]

These sorts of prices on hardware is why I left the classic systems. I even sold my A3000 to a member here loaded with an CSPPC, mediator and all the goodies people dream of thinking I was getting it to someone that was getting the machine they dreamed of for years. Soon after I saw it parted out and sold on eBay for a huge profit. It was the last time I ever sold my stuff to anyone. A few greedy people have turned our love into a nasty game that just doesn't sit well with me. MorphOS on a top of the line final edition of the G4 and G5 Macs is better in every way to the best classic machine every made if you know how to set it up properly for a tiny fraction of the cost of even a Classic Network card.

Here is a good one for an A500.

[Acill]

I hate seeing horde piles like that!!! Greedy jerks is all they are.

On a happy note have you seen this? Man its still under $800 for all these nice systems. Even an A4000T here!

[Acill]

Oh God, that surely deserves a name like "the Franken500" !!!!

I love how that shielding was so clean cut. Its as if a mad squirrel ripped its way free after being locked inside!

[Acill]

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!

http://www.collectiblesonlineshopping.com/searches/atari.html

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

Well shoot, buy that cart up and sell it to him for a couple hundred! Lol, ebay is full of nut jobs.

[Acill]

not eBay but also very funny :lol::lol::lol::roflmao::roflmao:
and there are people which want pay 350 eu for this card :-)crazy people
I bought few months ago this card for 60 usd with shipping


http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?79919-Sonnet-Crescendo-7200/page1


crazy times ehhhh

Once again price gougers. The price on that is high because someone is developing a working OS extension that uses this card and a couple others as Amiga PPC accelerators like the CSPPC sort of.

[Acill]

This is starting out at a pretty reasonable price.  Too bad it's most likely "death by Varta".  

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Commodore-Amiga-4000D-/141947032639?hash=item210cb3d43f:g:rwYAAOSwAvJW~yKL

It makes me mad just to see this and I didn't have anywhere else to share the pic, lol.  :p

You can find some good Amiga people still though. I gave an A4000 040 away to a friend that helped me get my A4000T up and running again for example just a few months ago. The only people selling at these prices are the jerks that are in it for the greed.

[Acill]

Talking about crazy eBay prices, this isn't in the same league of the F-19, but what's with the prices people are asking for Competition Pro joypads for CD32? I've been seeing buy it now prices of $159USD to over $250USD!

Have they really gotten that rare or in demand?

No, its just the hoarders buying up crap is all. Those of us that actually use our systems instead of having them all sit on a shelf looking pretty suffer.

I need a good "real" amiga gamepad if anyone has one for a realistic price too. My Megadrive pad sucks.

[Acill]

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

[Acill]

Update! It sold for over $400. Wow! This gives me hope on selling my A500. I just need to shine it up a bit.

On a side note, who would think an A500 would sell for about what a basic A1200 goes for? I know, A1200s are harder to come by.

I never understood it myself.

[Acill]

Looks like good parts for Acill!

Lol! I dont know how much of it I could use! Honestly though I would like to tear it down and scap the ports and any chips that would work.
