Bought a A500 system on usenet..didnt get what I paid for.
« on: June 22, 2004, 11:11:09 PM »
I bought a Amiga 500, A590 hd, dctv... well about 1 month later it gets here.. a stinky smelly A500 (smells like cigarette smoke..yuk!), dctv, and a vga adapter.  A590 isnt there.  I'm freakin pissed!


I bought it from:

Sorry to hear about the missing A590. They are a real neat piece of kit. I wish you the best of luck getting the matter resolved.

Just curious about usenet. Are there many Amiga users that subsribe to these servers?
