Nice Amiga 500 for sale
« on: August 28, 2004, 11:02:03 AM »
Hi Everybody,

I just received a really nice Amiga 500 computer.  It is in excellent "minty" condition with new disk drive and keyboard.  If interested then just pmail me and make an offer.   :-D

Hi Holley,

Doomy - you've posted these in the general forum


Yes, because they are NOT yet on eBay.  I am giving all you guys a chance to get them first before I list them on eBay.  If someone here wants them then I will not have to list them on eBay.   :-D

Yes, but they really belong in the ebay forum with a moniker of 'before ebay' or something ;-)

Another thing worth noting is that not everyone uses eBay, so it could be fine to be here.

Spirituality is for people who have been there.

I think the point is, that although the forum is called 'Amiga on ebay' it is also the general for sale forum, thus Doomy should have posted there.
I like Amigas

Yeah, for private sales the Ebay forum is quite slack, and a better place than general.

I'd suggest if Doomy (or anyone else) is going to be buying and selling they could put items on their own site and link to it (like Wierdami & Lemmink have done), thus seperating it from AO (which was the point of making the classifieds 'on ebay').

I am actually looking for a spare A500.

I would be interested but:

1) you have no picture of what it actually looks like
2) you only take cash or moneyorders
3) you probably want a arm and a leg for it

And from your ebay feedback there have been instances of people sending you money and you claiming not to have got it.  I do not like to take risks like that!  I guess I can always drive the 150 miles down there but it may not be worth it for a lowly 500. lol
