OK, so far I've tried not to interfere in this discussion because I was convinced that with the help of other people you would soon find out what the problem was. Seems I was wrong. Incidentally, I am the original owner of the Cyberstorm and so much nonsense was told here the last couple of days that I want to rectify some of the things that were told.
I have been a proud Amiga owner since 1987 and sold my beloved Amiga not because there was something wrong with it but because I recently bought a PC and simply don't have the space to keep two computers. Initially I wanted to sell to complete Micronik/A4000 with all the expansions and software I collected over the years as one lot, basically to be able to show to the buyer that everything was 100% OK and to avoid stupid incidents like this one.
The reason for stripping down the Micronik tower and selling it to Effy (as he already mentioned) was to do him a favor because he couldn't afford to buy the full setup at the time. Effy is a perfectly honest guy and as a favor to me he suggested to help me out and sell some of my remaining hardware.
Even now I am still convinced that there was nothing wrong with the Cyberstorm at the time it was shipped to Germany and that you should have contacted the person you bought it from (that is Effy or me) before starting to disassemble and 'wash' it! A refund at that point would have been absolutely no problem!
Now you got refunded too, but with the difference that I might be stuck with a wrecked Cyberstorm. In the process some people even accused Effy and me of being dishonest and trying to rip you off. This is pitiful to say the least.
I could go on like this for a while, but I'm not going to do that. Instead I hope that Effy can get the Cyberstorm running again (I no longer have an Amiga, so I can’t do it myself) in one of his Amiga’s to prove that you were wrong all the way!!!
