Looking forward to it mate

I think there'd be some room for a skilled amiga repair guy at least, state side. Give some life support and extension to the poor girls.

I wouldn't worry about authorized. Nobody who has any claim to the name today has any sort of interest financially in 68K machines.
 
Individual Computers aren't an "authorized" amiga dealer but they sold me a brand new ACA1230 just the same, through amigakit.

[runequester]

exactly. Fix up a few amigas, and wait until the people tell others on forums about your good work.
 
I'd love a reliable place to get stuff like cap's and other things fixed up, for sure, as I don't have any soldering skills any more. Even if its out of someones basement or back office

Selling items is different from repair/service work though. I'd start with the latter and work from there.

[runequester]

Well, sign me up as a prospective customer for sure
 
Figure out how to make and apply some retrobrite too

[runequester]

That's a great idea!!!! I make it affordable for you to send me your unit, I disassemble, clean & retrobrite it, repair, whatever, you pay with credit card, and I send back with insurance! Even if I buy parts from AmigaKit at their cost with a 10% markup, I think peeps would appreciate a place in the states to send their Amigas for service!

I think so yeah. I have no issue at all with amigakit, they've been awesome in all my interactions, but the cost of shipping can be an issue for bigger/heavier items.
