Yea but who has a picasso that will sell it? I havent seen one on ebay in ages. As for wether Im being cheated Id say no, I rationalize it like I do my muscle car fetish. I have the cash its a hobby and if the stuff is scarce it costs both me the end user and the guy who bought it in the first place, the dealer needs to make some profit I need the piece and we meet some where in the middle Im happy. If it was to much he would have it for years and it would collect dust and I would buy it elsewhere. It would be nice if all people were altruistic but this is reality I dont build Hemi Cudas for free and I dont expect others too either. Now being that this is a capitalistic society someone else is free to offer me the same or better product for a better price and I would take it but we will see how many people in the "Amiga community" step up.

@Red

For the new hardware you're selling I think the prices are about fair (even though some prices are twice that what the store over here ask for the same items) but for the secondhand 15year old hardware I think you're milking it a bit.

Said it already but saing it again... the Amiga is so much more than just a market to profit from (if it is that, I don't know if I agree). The prices for Amiga hardware these days hardly invite new ppl into the comunity and I find that very sad.

That said I'm not against you in what you're doing... the Amiga market is risky and likely don't give a big profit and the ppl doing this take a chanse. I also understand that you can't run a business as a charity.
