Fair cop - you spent money and you were burnt.
But it's in the buying you were burnt - not because people won't buy it off you for the price you are asking (700 pounds).

In order to sell it you'll have to set a realistic price based on what the technology is worth today, not what you paid for it yesterday.

A quick look on Eyetechs site can give us some (hopefully current) figures:

AmigaOneG3-SE  G3 750CXe@600MHz    360.00 UKP -  580.00 Euro

Thats a far cry from 700 UKP!

Especially when:

AmigaOne-XE G4 7451@800MHz 500.00 UKP 800.00 Euro

So what value would I be getting for the additional 340 UKP I'd be paying?

It's a serious question - I am led to believe that the eyetech price won't include ram, case, or other accesories (although these are hardly expensive nowadays).

So what additional value do I get for my purchase? Because it looks like most of the offers here could be held as legitimate.

Siggy.
