Amiga 060 card going for £320... I can remember even PPC cards 2 years ago going for only just over £200 sometimes..., Why has the price of these cards increased so much in such a small space of time?  :-?

I give up...  :-(

Demand! people are returnig to Amiga all the time for nostalgia and people want to have the best/what they could not afford when they were younger.

I really wished someone would start making these cards again.

I know someone who could definitely make cards--but I bet that AMI (the new ami) wouldn't particularly enjoy this happening.

Um, wow. I guess this really is a good time for me to be selling my Apollo 4060, although the bids on mine haven't nearly reached that level of insanity. Still, $600 for a 1200 accelerator? Wow...
