What about this greedy so & so.

Wow! £200 for an A1200 trapdoor ram board? I have one of these but without FPU. Who the hell bought that at that price? Those cards shouldn't be worth more than £50 tops. That makes it a £150 FPU chip...bloody expensive if you ask me.

"Push at the base of the card close to the amiga

If everything is aligned correctly apply pressure and it will slide in.

Great for Whdload games

 Tested with a Game called Breathless"

I suppose he made a cup of tea as well inbetween rendered frames.

There is also a tiny cut in the top left  of the box about 3/4'' long. still attached but I wanted to make sure  all of you could see it.  its on the added pic.
This seller must be kicking himself! I'd say that's shaved off at least $500.

One hell of a collection for who ever bought it :)

Would have been cheaper to rent the place and have a few heavy retro sessions!

WTF is wrong with people. New? Like new? Really?

Looks to me like it's ex-rental or something, or worse. What crap condition. How the hell can these people feel comfortable with their blatant lies? I'm just relieved there's a photograph.

Huge lot of vintage Mac and Apple stuff. I know the IIGS's alone are worth more than this. Wonder what this will go up to? Man, what I wouldn't give to find a lot of Amiga stuff like this! C'mon, I know some of you hoarders are going to die someday! ;)

Quite possible, I suppose! I don't know anything about old Macs or Apple II's. Is this a big problem with them?

I haven't a clue....I was referring to the the huge stash of Amiga's you'll eventually come into when the Amiga hoarders start popping their clogs.

there is problem with sick head !! fast medic help is necessary


When purchasing new Amiga gear, it's generally a good investment. But yes, in this case the price seems £100 too expensive. In reality it should remain unsold, but he's preying on the weak, the vulnerable, and the desperate Amiga user lol. :)

Just like the other guy on here who has 27 A1200's.

This is why the rest of us can't have nice things.  :p


You know that's not true. Real reason is that there are few A1200's in north America, whilst Europe is swamped with them (and A600's/500's).

wow if that sells then I'll be rich:rofl: well to be honest I don't plan on selling my A1000 for as long as I can still have the health to use her regularly which God willing is still a looong time so then it's probably better to say my kids will be rich when they sell mine many many many years from now ;-)


More likely all our Amiga's will end up in land fill once we're gone, unless we can get our children obsessed with them.
