There is no kickstart ROM included!  Just the disks, read the discription.  It is not easy getting WB on disk.  If you dont know anyone you cannot do it unless you have a catweasel controller and how many people have that and actually know or have the time to do it?  Disks like this will sell.  I have seen copied game disks for Atari 800 and C64 go for over $50 easy for the same reason.  People want to get the old computer running the easiest way, and will pay for it.

If you don't own the original WB1.4 then it would, but I don't think Amiga would really care. :-D

I think Amiga Ebay Auctions are getting more and more out of control these days.

The other day I was watching an auction for a A4000. In the last 10 seconds this person bid an extra $200 against themselves.

Today I was watching this auction:
A500 auction

It went from $15 to $171 in the last minute!!

This is a stock A500 people :crazy:  :crazy:  :crazy:  :crazy:  :crazy:  :crazy:  :crazy:  :crazy:

What is going on?

Also, not that I care, but check out the guy's buying habbits that bumped the item up to $75.00 in the first place. He bought 4 A500's in as many weeks...  odd.   :-o

Click on the recent item #'s....

Wow... I guess I should list my WB1.3 bundles I have here instead of tossing them all out.  :-o

Maybe I should include a 1.3 ROM with them just to be different?

US$15K-17K for a Cyberstorm?! I thought $800 was a bit out there... DAAAAAAAAAMN!

A4000D, A3640 OC-36.3MHz, custom tower, Mediator A4000D. Diamond Banshee 16M, Indivision AGA 4000, GVP HC+8.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

 - Someone please design SOME kind of DIY accelerator for the A4000. :D -
