AMIGA 3000T ON EBAY

[nine3o]

I doubt that some one undercut any one on this auction.  The fact that the listing does not even exist any where means either e-Bay did not like something with this listing or some lamer complained to e-Bay that there is something wrong with this listing.  If this was an off to the side deal, the seller would have ended the listing, or the guy has not been paying his e-Bay bills and all his auctions have been removed, other wise the listing would still be in the system some where.

I emailed the seller and she said ebay canceled the ad because the search title included /not 4000/. How lame is that, it is not a 4000. thats just nuts. So she wants to get a little more  search coverage. Thats crappy of ebay. She said she will relist.

Finally!

The A3000T is the last classic I wanted to complete my collection

I think I'm done now with getting more classic Amigas, so the rest of you can bid without fear of me trying to snipe it away from you in the last seconds.  :-D

I will be working on setting up, upgrading and enjoying my collection over the rest of this year and probably be selling a few duplicate systems, parts and duplicate software titles and magazines toward the end of 2007, so I can save up for the next generation of Amiga hardware that should be ready for purchase by June of 2008 with AmigaOS 5.0 coming out about 18 months after that.  Then I will only have to wait another short 9 months for a decent web browser to be released for AmigaOS 4 and/or 5 so I can finally see websites designed in 2005 correctly on an Amiga native web browser.  I can't wait!

But the best news is yet to come as Amiga users finally have new (?) hardware and a modern (?) OS and web browser to use, the RED and BLUE camps of developers will finally give up their fighting and join forces in 2011 to write code for the remaining 15 Amiga users left in the world.   :boohoo:  

(Sarcasm added for humorous effect, for those who don't know me)

A3000T............. Can't wait to pick it up!  Maybe I should bring help to lift it considering my current health and the considerable weight of what is likely to become my favorite Amiga model.

2 - A1000, 2 - A500, 1 - A600, 2 - A2000, 3 - A3000D, 1 - A3000T, 3 - A4000D (2 in towers), 1 - A4000T, 2 - A1200, 2 - CDTV, 2 - CD32.  Total= 21 Amigas  I had better keep an eye open over my shoulder for those guys in the white jackets.  :crazy:

Dude, is it realy worth that much?   I got a 4000t with ppc AND cybervisionPPC for LESS than that.  The 3000 tower is a nice box I guess as good as any amiga but with out AGA alas.

I used one of these 3000towers back in the mid 90's to do news graphics with scala....live... never crashed, execpt that one time when I needed to know that happend when you turn the key counter clock wise...reset...interesting.

Due to location, and rarity of this particular model in good condition, YES!  It was worth it to me to complete my extensive collection.  Shipping for a computer tower the size of an A3000T is expensive.  That coupled with the fact that it has a decent size HD with OS3.9 already installed will save me some time and it does have the high density floppy drive that I often see people trying to sell for $70 to $100 alone.

I am not crazy about the price, but believe that the auction would have come close to that amount and I have seen them go for even higher when you get a couple of collectors trying to bid on the same item.

Really, the location, condition and the fact that the A3000T is hard to find, made it worth the price TO ME!

Just hope the seller packs it well, there's always the fear of recieving it with the front bezel smashed to pieces
Recieved one of my Micronik towers in that state

[amiga92570]

Well congrats, I missed it. I will have to say it is a plus though being able to pick it up in person.

Dave:

I love my A3000T even over my A4000T. I think it the best tower Amiga ever built. The only problem I've ever had with mine was the power supply. Enjoy.
