Just a small tip. Even if you parted everything out, realistically you'd get around $1000 - $1200 USD. As a bundle sale, expect to receive offers under $1000 USD.

damn thats a sweet setup.

'nother word of advice. don't sell up. sooner or later you'll only start building it all back up again...  ;-)

A500, A600, A1200x3, A2000, A3000, A4000 & a CD32.
and probably just like the rest of you, crates full of related "treasure" for the above XD

I agree even on ebay you will never get more then about $1000 for the system.
Its a shame your selling, You may regret it sometime down the road.

No, it's not my only Amiga but it's the one I've spent the most money, time, and effort on.  I've overextended myself in the past few months, not just on Amiga stuff though, and the wife says something has to go.  I'm keeping my A1000, A500, and A1200 as they are mostly stock.

As to the actual worth I'm not real sure.  I'm basing my price on what I have invested.  I know some of the parts you just can't find for sale.  The hard drive is the one I just bought from AmigaKit.com, the best Amiga vendor.  :)Trust me, I DON'T want to sell it!  This one was my pride and joy!

If I were you I would sell the other three Amigas and keep the A4000.
Hope things work out for you.

Well, if any members here on Amiga.org are interested in individual parts let me know and we'll see what we can work out.

I've not listed on Ebay yet but probably will by this weekend.

If I were you I would try to debate the issue again with your wife. I'm sure there can be an alternative ??? I'm having the same discussions sometimes and I got the answer for you (depending on your habbits though)

Tell her you'll buy a huge closet to put all messy looking things in she'll hopefully accept your mess being put out of sight. :) (Debate here is always mess against usefulness)
