it was in no way a intentional rip off.

Did you at any time mention to him the net values of the two machines and how this was a poor deal for him?

Were you nervous he might change his mind right up to the point you exchanged?

Did you get it home as fast as possible and then rub your hands in glee?

Of course you ripped him off. And if I were in your situation I would have done the same!

I'm not sure I would have described my victim as a "new friend" though ;-)

Well I imagine that guy Got the Amigas for peanuts, thus his eagerness to trade for a nice A2000.  No big deal,but maybe offer him some extra stuff he might need?  Email him and see if he needs anything else, its the least you can do for your "taking advantage of him" LOL

The guy probably did not have to pay much to take the A4kT and other Amigas off the production company's hands, so he did not expect to get much when trading the A4kT for the A2000.  He probably just wants to play some old games and nothing more.  I am sure he will regret it later when he knows more about Amigas and finds out what it was really worth.

Great grab, I probably would have done the same and then lived with my guilty conscience later.  :lol:
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)
