Q: Amiga Pen (white plastic) with The Checkered Red/White Ball

Q: Amiga Pen (white plastic) with The Checkered Red/White Ball Logo just like the one at the top left (Amiga.org logo).

I'm wondering if these are collectible or not?

I happen to see it over my dad's place - it's probably one I picked up awhile back and they kept... I brought it home with me so that it wouldn't be thrown away.

I might have time in the near future to take a photo.

Anyone have one or any idea about this?
TIA

Standard merchandise from the Escom era. I have a couple of them.

I think they're a little collectable, but I'm not sure if they're worth much. I have a few I'm keeping too, so I guess that makes it collectable. :-)

There are probably a few Amiga fans that would give a few dollars and postage for one, but if you got an offer for more than $3-4US, I'd be suprised. Now in another 20 years, who knows, you might see them on Antique Road Show or something.

Here's a picture of what you're probably refering too...

Yeah, I have one of those. Petro himself gave me one back in '99 or something like that. Hehe...

Those were the days, eh?

Yup, it almost seemed possible then. I got a couple of interesting items from Petro also about the same time. Guess he was touring the Americas then. One item was a signed Amiga business card with the Gateway's Cow spots on it.

Still have that here in a trading card protector. Got to be worth what.... $2US :-)
