WANTED: A1200's & A600's in Australia
« on: August 30, 2004, 05:51:36 AM »
Amiga Collector/Musician hunting for 1200's & 600's.
will pay $100AU for standard working 1200 and $50AU for working 600. Will pay more for upgraged models.

I am always looking for these, so don't hesitate to make me an offer. Especially if you live in AU or NZ.

If you live in UK or USA forget it! Your countries postage suck so much, even a give away would not be worth my time & $.

Considering bog standard A600's have been selling for AU$80-AU$100+ on eBay Australia I don't like your chances.

I looked at buying an A1200 on Ebay for a while (im in Australia) and bought an A1200/030 HD for $200 from NZ and I consider that a bargain.

So your prices may be a touch low, good luck though :)

I've seen an amiga 1200 for sale here for $400AUD, I forget who exactly advertised it (g4amiga@??) but it was an a1200 rev 2b, BPPC@180MHz (68040@25), 64mb EDO ram, BVision3D, etc in one of those funky towers... I was outbid by someone else, so I offerred the guy $800 for the lot (I really, *REALLY* wanted one of these)

He finally sent it out, and we agreed on COD.. then something nasty happenned, water seaped through the roof of AusPost's office (during some heavy rain) and presumably killed the thing --- it was insured, but I havent heard about the thing since they said they needed to get it checked by a techie... The owner didnt seem too happy even though it was insured! Shame to lose an amiga like that, no matter how much you get paid out for it, though.

Oh, and keeping to the subject... If people like me are willing to pay upwards of $400 for an expanded A1200 (if there are indeed people like me) -- Then it looks like you've got little to no chance   :-(

I do have a heavily expanded P4 w/760GB of hdd (spanned across 4 IDE, and 2 SATA drives, all 8mb cache mainly western digital, the rest are seagate), liquid cooled 3.2GHZ P4 PRESCOTT processor, gigabit lan, 1gb of ddr400 dual channel memory, 256MB WinfastA360TD GF FX 5700 video card, sound blaster live audigy 5.1 sound card, 14 USB 2.0 ports, 2 internal liteon 52x writers, an internal pioneer 4x dvd-rewriter, and 5 external USB2.0 Liteon 52x writers, 2 x thermaltake purepower PSUs all enclosed in a thermaltake xaser III V1000d case

(*phew!*)

That I might be willing to trade for a couple of chunky a4000/a3000 video toaster systems though :p

OK!!!!! DONT TELL ME WHAT I CAN PAY FOR A1200. I USE AMIGA LOTS I CHECK EBAY LOTS I PROBABLY KNOW BETTER THAN YOU DO!

If you actually HAVE an A1200 or 600 for sale, but want more than I offer. Please make an offer, I may buy it anyway.

If you are just going to tell me I'm dreaming, then you can (sorry I don't think I'm allowed to say that in these forums) my (or this:^).

four years ago I got 2xA1200 (w/ fast mem & a mountain of original software and cables, etc. all set up for parnet) for bargain $200AUD. I know was lucky, but it happens.

P.S. I am quite keen for an A600 so I revise my offer *****$100AUD for working A1200 OR A600.*****

PLEASE! unless you are going to make me an offer: DO NOT POST TO THIS THREAD!

oh, I can get A1200 for approx. $150AUD from an Australian dealer, so I would not pay anybody any more than that UNLESS of course, it has a processor upgrade.

Yeah, well maybe the moderators can understand that you guys are really starting to (cheese) me off.

Do you actually have an amiga to sell?

Or are you just yanking my chain? (DON'T ANSWER THAT)
