A3000 Price
« on: July 09, 2005, 02:52:53 AM »
I've never actually owned an Amiga before, but I have been using it through an emulator for a while. Suffice to say I've fallen in love with its charm :-) So now I'm in the market for some hardware. I was looking at an A3000 on ebay, mainly because I think the A3000 is the best looking amiga. Anyway, it went for $255, and I was quite surprised. Is that what these systems normally go for? Any advice on which system I should get? Thanks in advance.

Well that is a little high for a A3000 so it must of been nice and had extras.  The A4000 goes for more around $400 - $500.  The A3000 a little less, and with the A2000 around $50 to $100 or so.  Yes they are worth more than PC's of that era!

Something to be aware of in the big box Amigas, is the NiCad battery.  If it leaked it will cause major damage on the A3000/A4000, so make sure it has not leaked or was removed before buying.  If it was never checked, then it most likely has leaked and caused damage.  Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. I'll keep the battery issue in mind. My best guess is that it was so expensive because of the condition of the manuals, which were pretty good. If I can dig up the link I'll post it.
