I was watching and bidding on that one myself but dropped out at £150, I only wanted it for the SubWay & Blizzard board. I honestly don't think it was worth what it sold for though... :)

@ Runequester

I suppose if you break it down and go by the sort of prices you pay on eBay for the various parts it would work out at this price going by recent average prices being paid on ebay... :)

Code: [Select]
4xEIDE Buffered Interface £ 26
40GB HD                   £ 25
DVD R/W Slim              £ 15
SubWay USB Device         £ 48
PCMCIA Card               £  5
Blizzard030 32MB          £175
250 Watt PSU              £ 15
A1200                     £ 55

Total                     £364

As the only possible things I would keep from it are the Subway and the 4xEIDE then to me personally it wouldn't be worth the kind of money it went for at first but to someone looking to buy a complete set up then it's a fair price I reckon... :)

If you can't discuss prices, why start it at all ?

I don't think you are going to get that amount for the Blizzard since the ACA's are out.


Here's some recent prices for various Blizzard30 boards that have sold on eBay from the past couple of weeks... :)

Blizzard030 32MB Sold For £175.50

Blizzard030 64MB Sold for £177.17

There were a few others and all reached the £170 mark and one with only 4MB of ram went for over £190. Most buyers on ebay don't even know about the new cards as most don't visit the forums and have no idea they are/were available... :)

Mk III sells for quite a bit less than Mk IV


Yup... that was one of the reasons why I dropped out of the bidding, when I realised it was only a MK III board... :)
