That's about as insane as paying $2,800 for a C=128, but at least you have the excuse of a bidding war. Asking $425 for tiny piece of silicon that lets you connect outdated hardware at least deserves a OMFG.

 
Soooooo....do you want to buy it or should I buy it? :D :D

I shudder to think that someday these parts will be so rare, that this will actually be what they cost.  Somebody bring on more after-market replacements for these items!

Uh listen, I am not making this up. I have two A500 power supply one works in USA/Canada and the other works in Europe (110v and 220V). I am willing to sell them both for you for just 40 bucks for both of them. Meaning, each one of them will be solved for 20 bucks. Interested? I want to get rid of them myself.

I also have three external Amiga disk drive, I would be more than happy to get rid of them also. Since I have an A1200 and will be using WHDLoad most of the time I would not be needing additional disk drives. Each disk drive I will sell it for 20 bucks as well.

Most likely it is temporarily out of stock, some sellers will increase the price to deter further sales when they are awaiting more stock from their supplier,
just means they don't have to end the current listing.

That's it! I give up! Let us stick with emulators.

Uh, guys I think I won. I think I hit the biggest jack pot that not even the rarest Amiga can compete with what I have in store. Here we go: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/APPLE-II-Vintage-Computer-A2S1-Classic-VERY-RARE-NOT-Clone-or-Plus-AS-IS-/321123147299?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item4ac46e5e23

Did I win?

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.

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.

No, she shot me and I still had to get online and retract the bid, and then clean the blood off the floor and keyboard.

Wait..that was you who have put 2,500 for the card and you retracted your bid? If so, did you change your mind because of the posting here in the forum saying that with that money you could have bought X1000 over an old and outdated technology like that PPC card?

Nah, you're confusing me with someone else. And I was joking anyway. The rumours of my death were greatly exaggerated.
I saw it when it was at $2k already. Didn't place a bid. I reckon Id pay $900 though. But that would be my limit.


AH! You said you would pay 900? Funny that is how much I paid for an A4000D all together and honestly I would not pay $900 for it. Just because it is a price of an entire computer..no. I would stick with 040. But problem I am facing is AmiBlitz 3 is very much processor intensive and 040 is too slow for this application. So if I am going to do anymore Amiga classic hardware purchase it would be a 060.

Wow, it's back up there in price again, less than a day left now, seriously if it's one of you guys bidding on this thing send me a PM and I am sure we can get you set up with something for a lot less money :razz:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-3000-4000-CyberStorm-PPC-68060-CPU-accelerator-card-/111291259973?pt=AU_Consoles&hash=item19e979dc45


Hey DutchinUSA I will take your offer :D I want a 060 @ 66 Mhz card really for my A4000D. You said you will offer something for a lot less money, right? If I sell my 040 card for 400 dollars would you be willing to sell me a 060 card for 600 dollars plus shipping and handling? It just my 040 @ 25 Mhz does the job for what it's intended..but if I want to use more intensive applications such as using AmiBlitz3.5 on it...it is unbearably slow...every single key press in the keyboard take 4 seconds for the word to appear...it is slow. If I want to watch hv movies it is unwatchable..the frame rate is 5 fps...and certain other apps is just too slow for it.

This poor A3000 looks like it went through a meat grinder and the seller STILL wants $300!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/321350222121

Actually Curtis after what I have seeing, 300 dollars for an A3000D computer is pretty cheap. Have you not seeing the pricing in the market lately? My A4000D is not brand new, it have seeing enough of the days passing and it cost me 900 bucks. So yeah!

I am confused here. Was this price 20k Euro or is the price 19.99,02 Euro..which is like 20 Euro? Because if that was 20k Euro then it would be 30,436 dollars....and umm....ok @_o
