...Tested with a Game called Breathless"

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

That's funny, and so true...:biglaugh:

[amiman99]

How about $500 A500 with monitor and printer.
In the description: "...I don't even know how to begin to figure out how this all fits together and works. You're buying it as is..."

I just dont get ebay posting like that:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-1200-Computer-System-w-Power-Cord-and-Manuals-Lot-/261083433645?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item3cc9c90aad

Part of the description"...Unit has NOT been tested as I do not have the proper cable to connect to a monitor or tv..."

Come on! It's A1200, comes with composite out, how hard is to test it???

This is not first time I've seen postings like that, the only one that can really say that can not be tested is A4000.

anyway...

The listing is not mine

I don't know if someone is desperate for CDTV or a bidding mistake.

Currently $610 for CDTV, Keyboard, floppy drive, controller, and mouse, plus some games.

A3640 on a carpet... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-A3640-040-accelerator-/190794144845?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item2c6c379c4d

If is someone from here, please don't do that, you're killing it

[amiman99]

He's back on eBay with the "Ultimate A4000T" listed for $2000!

Let us see how long the listing lasts.

DO NOT DO IT!!!!!! The account is hacked big time. ALL items under the user are $2000 and the weird thing is, it will redirect you to a site outside of EBAY that looks like ebay. I never saw that from Ebay's site yet.
It will prompt you to enter the username and password and then they have your credentials.
I had to change my password really fast before they will. I hope I was fast...

I know, I have seen a lot of scam before, but this is first, and if you want to report it, it gives you Buy IT Now page.

That's what happens when you let others embed their HTML code.

[amiman99]

If you stop the page loading before it redirects, you can report it.

I did that, and I called the Ebay too about it, the page is still up and it looks like  Ebay is not too concerned about it.
I wonder how many sellers are hacked at one time and they don't know about it?

[amiman99]

seems kind of expensive for 22mhz...

how about a Draco seems pretty reasonably priced, but I don't know much about them

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Draco-Casablanca-Nonlinear-Rendering-Acceleration-Amiga-Macrosystem-as-is-/181121746141?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a2bb284dd

I have one and is not a DRACO, maybe is based on it, but definitely not a DRACO. It doesn't run any Amiga software.

[amiman99]

How about Macbook for $45000.00 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Apple-MacBook-A1342-13-3-2-26Ghz-3Gb-250GB-SD-BT-AP-2009-/221217432724?pt=Apple_Laptops&hash=item3381962494
Must be a special edition :/

Speaking of Macbooks, why there are so many of them that are cracked and abused???

[amiman99]

Must have been a typo on that one.....it now shows buy it now of $450, starting bid $350

Better, but still too much.

[amiman99]

I seriously consider letting my CBM A4000T go. I think that if it sells through eBay you would see an insane auction also.

Amiga 1000 auction sold for over $9000, Insane!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Commodore-Amiga-1000-Factory-Sealed-NOS-/310640574635?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item48539f00ab

I still think that auction was rigged.

[amiman99]

What if it is not? What if now all Amiga systems are worth minimum $10k? What if my Amiga 1200 is worth $20k? Can you imagine the profit I will be making.

Wishful thinking, but good thinking.

[amiman99]

Not too crazy ebay BIN A2000HD for $175 with free shipping.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-2000HD-Computer-/111079506551?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item19dcdac277
(not mine)

[amiman99]

Non amiga, but still crazy.
I bought 2

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nxp-Ic-74Hc-Cmos-74Hc245-Dip20-5V-74Hc245N-/121112497059?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Components_Supplies_ET&hash=item1c32de0ba3

It's probably a place holder for out of stock items.
I've seen that before.
