It's not that the prices are high. It's that nobody does amazon auctions.

I'm sorry, I buy on eBay and YES these prices are high.  Not un reasonable but to high to start bidding for sure, and yeah, nobody goes to amazon.

$50 for a prevew sync strainer... man they where cheaper new!

Nice, clean looking machine.  I think it's a fair price considering the Video Toaster system is included.  Good luck, however I agree that eBay would probably give you a larger market.  Any reason you're not using it?

Most of the stuff is over priced, The Kitchen sync TBC for example wont sell for more than $100. I have two of them so I should know. I would consider bidding on it if the start price would be at about $80.

Yeah, the prices seem fair enough.  I have usually seen things do better starting low and letting people bid them up, though.    (And also, I agree -- amazon auctions?? WHY? I hardly ever look for anything there...)  But, hey, seller's choice, really.  :)  Good luck.  I wouldn't mind the 4000/Toaster, but I've got too much Amiga stuff as it is!  :lol:

My maths:

high prices + new auction site + questionable seller = no bids = not surprised
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

You can play the violin all you want, but the coments here are correct. Take advise from a former eBay power seller. Your current aproach will reach little or no buyers.

1) Most items priced far too high.
2) If it aint eBay, it aint selling.
3) No seller history, too many scammers in the Amiga market.

Put them on eBay on true auction and post a link here. You will get market value.
Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!
