Yes, but that is no promis but a try. And it qoule not be free of charge, as you auctioned the card without the dongle.

As a seller, I think this truly indicates a form of "blind" bad faith on your part.

I truly think it should have been your responsibility to know that the card you auctioned is useless without the dongle.

It is as if I sold a pair of ROM 3.1 chips for the Amiga 4000 but one in one auction and the other chip in another auction and just played dumb as if I didn't know that one is totally useless without the other.

I have to clear a lot of things at the moment and do sell the doublettes of my collection. The cause for this is very personal

I wish I could believe you, but the above statement can not be trusted, since I can dig up several ebay auctions which you are bidding on (so can AMIGAZ apparently). Clear a lot of things and still be active buyer of equipment doesn't quite match. It has chop-shop written all over it.

Well, I am not playing dumb, I just did not know (as James also did not). I solt the card explicitly without functioning garuantee, because I wanted to have it out of my way.
Everybody who bids on such auctions should be aware. James got the card for a fracture of the possible worth, that should be taking into calculation.

For the card not working without the dongle I see it as a failure on both sides (but that is just my point of view).

Clearing doublettes does not mean to buy no other items.

That you have a problem with me you have clearly written via mail

And you as a "collector" are fully aware of the full price such a card would sell for, so selling it for a fraction of a price is suspecious, when you have the possibility to test it, so why settle for less?

I got it for 40 euro more than you paid for the same thing so stop the crap about paying a fraction.  The fact is it is worth nothing as is!

The end result of your solutions so far is as follows

1. You will try and find a FF for the PIV card at my expense but no promises and no refund if you dont find one
2. The Amiga 4000 board you  continuing repeat that you can't beleive it's dead line and offer no solution whatsoever apart from me attacking it with a multimeter which you seem to think will spring it back to life  :roll:

Why you can't believe it's dead when you stated in one of your bounced emails This is true., I have NOT TESTED the boards. What in this sentence dont you understand?   If you didn't test it why can't you believe it's dead.

Yes I could read all your bounced emails fine...you did forget this quote thou on Amiga.org
Above I think of consulting a lawyer as the whole things gets messed up by your campaign.

I haven't got a problem with you specifically, I have a problem with the way you do things. Seing how this thread evolves, makes me certain I did the right thing in not transfering the money to you for the motherboard in the first place. Now jimbo100 is left with the dogshit on his hands, instead of me.

Hi Jimbo100,

I´ve received your both messages using eBay.
But I can´t answer you there, because eBay doesn´t allow that to me.  :-?
Maybe a preventing function of Spam...
And you didn´t tell me your eMail address in there.

Yes, I´ve sold a Picasso IV Card to amix68k. Art. No. : 180094694368  
I´ve got the card together with an Amiga 2000 and some other stuff like a network card (Ariadne), Harddisk and a Picasso II Card.
The only card that didn´t seemd work was the PIV.
For me it looked like the card wasn´s detected from the A2000 and the Picasso driver.
I remember a message that told a Picasso.resource wasn´t found. (or so ... )

The Picasso II worked fine, so I thought the Amiga itself was OK.

I was happpy, with the PII card and sold the PIV as DEFECT / use for spare parts, because I didn´t know if I´ve made something wrong.

NOW, I´ve bought a "new" PIV Card with FliFi / Scandoubler part and it works fine. It also works with the scandoubler part disconnected in my A2000.
That means that there is no error message like the card I´ve sold to amix68k.

So one thing I wonder is he said that "my" card works fine ...  :-o  

Your second post to me :
No, unfortunately I still don´t have the original photo I´ve made anymore. And I don´t know the serial number.

Best regards

Andreas

Exact, I wanted to have it out of my cabinet quick. I do not have time nor pleasure (at the moment) in testing everything. Therefor I sell it explicitly WITHOUT working garuantee.

Thank you very much Andreas for your answer to my email

So one thing I wonder is he said that "my" card works fine ...  

Oh dear, then how did he get it to work in his Amiga because he has clearly told me vcr4000's card worked and he sold me his old card?

Surely he isn't lying to me?  :-o

It is clear now that amix68k has been lying as the original owner of the PIV card sold to amix68k has stated it does not function.

The whole story of buy the card to replace his already working card wasn't too believable and now it has been proven so.

I have sent you an email amix68k so you can try and save something of your reputation.  The ball in now in your court my friend!

I told you above that this is not true.

The end result of your solutions so far is as follows

2. The Amiga 4000 board you  continuing repeat that you can't beleive it's dead line and offer no solution whatsoever apart from me attacking it with a multimeter which you seem to think will spring it back to life  :roll:

Please stop qouting only parts of my mails. I asked you what to do, but I told you that my paypal-account is blocked.

With a multimeter you could specify the error.

Why you can't believe it's dead when you stated in one of your bounced emails This is true., I have NOT TESTED the boards. What in this sentence dont you understand?   If you didn't test it why can't you believe it's dead.

Ok, I believe it is dead. I sold it untested. If you are not willing to elaborate the board what else should I do?

Yes I could read all your bounced emails fine...you did forget this quote thou on Amiga.org
Above I think of consulting a lawyer as the whole things gets messed up by your campaign.

Great that you read my emails. Why did you not answer and left me in the dark?

And for the lawywer. you threatened me with legal actions and yes I am going to consult a lawyer and I hope he tells me how to react on such situation.

It worked in an A4000, yes.

No need for offensive talk again.

[jimbo100]

And amix68k, what do you have to say about vcr4000?

It doesn't stop with you does it?  vcr4000 has already said his card was dead!  Stop the lies, you have painted yourself in a corner and your reputation is in tatters!

Do the noble thing before you have nothing left!

It seems to be so. We are running around in circles here. You do not believe me, but you also does not want to elaborate the boards.

The board from Andreas was not dead, but it did not work in his A2000.

Anyway, I have sent you a mail and I think it is the best to let a outside party decide over the whole mess.

I am offline now for some hours.

Please read carefully, he said the card did not work in his A2000 without the dongle.
