Wanted: Amiga 4000

[Chubbyrain]

Hello everyone.

I'm looking for a nice A4000. The usual requirements; working(!), new battery, little or no yellowing, good condition etc.

If anyone has one for sale let me know. I have money waiting.

I'm in the USA, so if you are overseas then you'll have to consider shipping costs.

Many thanks in advance.

I too am still looking for a full good A4000 :-)

You really don't need a new battery, just make sure they don't have any battery damage that's all.

I'd recomend doing what I did.  I got a good condition 4000 from EBay.  Had very little battery issues but a bad Par: port and, after a few months the sound started going.  I'd added a CD drive and max memory so I wanted to preserve the system.

I sent it over to JJ at AmigaCenter.com in France.  Had the bad sound and par: port fixed, added a rechargeable battery, and generally reconditioned the board.  I had additional issues with my processor card which were also cured.  Highly recommend his service! He put up with quite a few questions from me and guided me when I needed it after the repair.  

The downside, from Elk Grove, to your north, the shipping to desination times were on order of 2-3 weeks by international mail.

Good luck on your hunt!

If sound is bad like cracking noise, replace the two 22uF 16V capacitors and clean area beneath/around them, it works.

Hey,

Since you hail from Sac, drop by the SACC meeting.
I know at least two members have extra 4000's.

At a recent meeting I installed a new/used 4000 motherboard
in the vp's machine.
He got it for really cheap from another member.

It pays to support the local club!!!

Thanks for all the helpful replies AND the not so helpful ones.

How much would one get for an A4000/030, all original, except the graphics card (don't remeber what kind)..

I did this on my A4000D to no avail (not saying it DOESN'T work, just not in my situation.)  I found that after I resoldered the 68060 on my CyberStorm, the crackling noise went away.  Weird.........
