Will trade multiple Amiga systems and accessories for mint condition Peg2.

I will include in the trade a CSPPC w/CVision 128mb RAM, 604e @233MHz/ 68060 @50MHz

Plus other systems or items I have in my collection.

Please contact me via email only (click on my avatar name to get to my profile and find my email address).

I cannot afford to pay money, only trade Amiga items.  I prefer trading with someone in the USA, but will consider other traders depending on shipping costs.

I wish to make the leap forward and like what I have seen with the MorphOS2 release, but do not want the lower powered Efika option for hardware.

Thanks for your interest.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

I can, and I might have to eBay several of my Amiga items to achieve my goal of obtaining a PegasosII, but I thought I would at least try to find someone that owns a Peg2 that might be interested in trading for some of my Classic Amiga gear.

With several Phase5 Cyberstorm PPC cards selling on eBay for well over $1,000, I would certainly hope I could get over $500 for it.  It is the fastest Phase5 PPC card ever produced.

If it were yours, I have no doubt you would be asking close to $1,500 for it.  :lol:

A) Who in their right mind would want to go back to AmigaOS after MorphOS?
B) Who in their right mind would want to trade good capable hardware to junk?

:huh:

You'd better try the Ebay-option unless you find someone a bit cuckoo inside his head  :-)

Well, there are some owners of PegasosII systems that have decided to sell them as they have moved on to other systems like MacOS, Linux of some flavor, or even Windows.  Some of those that have given up on MorphOS as their main computer may still have some interest to keep a Classic Amiga for nostalgic reasons and therefore want a top of the line Classic Amiga to play with.  Could happen???

I always have that option available to me, but as stated above, the person selling a PegasosII does not have to be "Cuckoo inside his head".

Very possible. Seen some ridiculous bids at Ebay.

Personally I think WinUAE is just too damn good to justify spending even a dime on Amiga-hardware. Hope you get your Peg, it really was nice piece of hardware and I was very sad to let it go.
