Original A1000 system and demo disks, value?
« on: December 29, 2011, 08:15:48 PM »
Just found an Amiga 1000 system for sale, seller claims it was a floor model he  bought from a closing store in late 80's. The machine is complete and comes with lots of original demo software disks.

I am just wondering how much these original disks may be worth and how much the entire system is worth, in excellent complete condition.


see pics of the disks: http://img193.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=61689_DSCN2751_122_135lo.JPG

There's nothing of particular value there, but the dealer disk is kinda neat if you're into that sort of thing. Machine looks like total crap too. I'd offer no more than $50-$60 for that system.

It's not my intention to contradict, but given the expansion, external drive, and monitor, I think the system is worth over $100 -- perhaps as much as $150.

Oh wow - yeah, for sure. Sorry, I totally skipped all the extras. Only saw the 1st pic with the 4 disks. I agree. Was only talking about the A1000 computer, mouse, keyboard and disks for that price.

I didn't see a actual pic of the front does it have the check mark or a boing ball?
