He is selling an A500 "upgraded to a 1000." Huh? Or perhaps "upgraded to 100." We may never know WTF that means without bidding $10. Ah, the follies of the silly!

I would guess it's expanded to 1mb, probably assumed that it was called amiga 500 because it had half a meg of ram.
 
It will be interesting to see whether the a4000 hits the reserve price, if only so we know what it is.

Not so crazy price.
Bought an A2000 from someone close to home that had been posted on Ebay.
$45.
 
Of course, anything I add to it will end up costing me an arm and a leg.

I recently sold one for nearly double that, fortunately they collected it as I wasn't looking forward to shipping it. I kept dreaming about putting a 2091 and a 2630 in it to bring it up to a2500/30 spec, but just couldn't bring myself to pay the silly prices (especially after getting ripped off on amibay for a 2091 that never turned up).

Well the reserve price is above $550!

It's up to $560 now.

I'm not sure there is much more in it, the buy it now is ridiculous.

Wow, somebody really wanted that in there.  You gotta wonder at the amount of work, figuring out the schematics, wiring, etc.  Probably cheaper to just go out and buy a 2000.  ;)  Must've been a labor of love though, would love to hear from whoever put that in there!


I don't know who put it in there, but the mod has been documented for a long time.
