I mean, what a joke. I suppose if that's too much you could pick up a slightly ripped Chaos Engine II for 60 quid,

MorphOS on MacMini
RISC OS on RPi
Dreaming of owning another classic.

Where's the problem?
No-one's forcing you to buy it.
I like Amigas

What is there to make you sick? Some sellers prefer to either sell for a high price or keep the item if the price is not meet, others prefer to sell at low prices and get rid of their items. Sellers own choice, if you want to sell your Chaos Engine II for 60 quid, do so, but don“t expect it to be sold. The same goes for the Agony game, unless a seller is missing it in his/hers collection.

Caveat Emptor!

Ebay is an auction site,and nobody HAS to buy.
Maybe we should all  sell our old stuff on Ebay and use the money to buy SAMs or X1000s !?

that's what i did! and it worked out great when I bought my Sam as I got some good money for some of my classic stuff that I had lying around as spares in my basement for years
! It worked both ways as the people that bought them were happy because the items they purchased were well maintained so Ebay can be a positive experience for both buyer/seller :-)..now of course some buyers get carried away and start paying ridiculous prices for common stuff but hey..that's their choice and it's not Ebay's fault !
just my 2 pesos
