I asked the guy if these parts were to follow the computer, and if the computer would start when connected to power... But... no answer... would that be a shock?
I don't know if this was you but someone asked him to be more specific about the machine on the auction.
Here's what he wrote"
The motherboard revision is B. All revision B motherboards include Commodore's 68040, 25 MHz board. The battery was not replaced because an Amiga 4000 does not need it. The hard drive is the standard 120 MB drive. The two drives shown in the picture are the high quality Chinon high-density disk drives. I am keeping them. I plan to install them in one of my Amiga 2500 computers. As clearly stated in the auction, one disk drive is included. It is a Chinon 880K drive. DF1 drive faceplate will be included. The Kickstart is version 3.0. Workbench 3.1 is installed on the hard drive. The Amiga 4000 keyboard and mouse, both in like new condition, are not included. I plan to use them with one of my Amiga 2500 computers. I never bothered to upgrade this Amiga 4000 because the Amiga 2000 computers are much nicer, higher quality computers. So, I upgraded them with KS 3.1, WB 3.9, video board, FF/SD board, 2-meg chip ram, 68040 / 060 board, ethernet board, lots of fast memory, and the best of the best Amiga software. I plan to buy one of the new Amigas for running Amiga OS 4.0, so I do not need a low-quality, poorly designed Amiga 4000 or 1200 computer. I am having a hard time understanding why you guys love these pieces of {bleep}. Even Dave Hanie said that the Amiga 4000 and 1200 are pieces of crap and that Commodore should never have released them. Anyway, I hope this answers your questions.-So he say's it's a revision B mother board, but he STILL didn't say this one had an 040, just stated that all revision B motherboards came with 040s, so this still needs to be clarified. Classic Doomy trick (as you'll see more below with the keyboard/mouse)
-The battery was indeed not replaced.
-The 2 drives in the picture?? Yeah, No, you don't get those. You get a non-standared double density drive that never shipped with an A4000, and also it will be missing the face plate for df1. Nice.
-No Workbench disks, but he did install a "copy" of it on the HD though. I hope AI here's about this!
-No keyboard or mouse, he's keeping these for himself because they're in such great condition
You can see how he tries to trick people with lines like this:
The Amiga 4000 keyboard and mouse, both in like new condition, are not included.He's not lying, but he hopes people just are skimming and see what they want, ie: keyboard and mouse are in like new condition, which they are, they're just aren't included.
The guy is very shady.
