How much is my A4000D worth?

[danbeaver]

Yes, if it has all of what you say it has, and it works, then it is worth $3,000 or €2,300 or £2,000.  

Don't believe Magnetic, he will just give you the prices HE wants to pay himself.  If you doubt the above estimate, just put it on the market and see.

yeah danbeaver thats what i'm going to do u tosser. You dont even know me so dont make stupid accusations.

[danbeaver]

Just following your previous posts:-)  I'm sorry you got upset, but $3,000 AUD or USD isn't crazy, but it is what those components go for these days.  I agree the 486 GG card is on the $400 side, but the PicassoIV with the modules are rare!  The 060 goes in the $600+ range and Deneb in $200+ arena.  The only thing he lacks is a G-Rex 4000 PCI CARD. Well, and  CSPPC.

[magnetic]

the Deneb goes for way more than that and the GG card is still way overpriced.
The point is dont make stupid insulting statements about me. Period.

ALRIGHT!   Period.

What is this, Antiques Roadshow?
You're sitting on a gold mine, OK? Whether you sell it as a whole, the Frankenstein 4000 that you've made, or whether you sell the individual parts, either way it is worth a lot, certainly more than most computers from the early '90s.

Like one of the other posters said, it's worth what someone is prepared to pay for it. And Rabbi my amigan friend, there are people out there that are prepared to pay ridiculous amounts of money for what you have. Price/MHz, Classic Amigas are almost unbeatable.

frankenstein amiga lol.. yeah all the stuff about this and that "dangling off" scared me

Wait! I'm confused. Who's got their period?

If I had more money right now, I'd make you an offer on the Picasso IV. It would go nicely in my A4000T.

I swapped out my Picasso IV for a Mediator + Radeon 9200 in my main A4T; it is faster and with the Indy AGA MKII, I get DVI-D on my 32" monitor.  The switch is a tiny pain, but sits right next to my keyboard.

Seems you overvalue your A4000
As for me I bought last A4000 @£275

I sold my A4000D for £200 and it was upgraded with the latest Buster etc.

Sakht as rafik!

Nowadays some people spend near 600 usd for a clearly broken horribly leaked 4000 on ebay... nuts i say!:(

Glad i got mine working. So many crooks out there lying !

One guy: "factory sealed a4000 which i got from an estate sale but the seller cut the seal...:laughing:

On the back of the thing there was so much corrosion i wonder whether ot was lying in the rain for a week and put in plastic foil to corrode...

Then i ask him how does the inside look?

He says: is it a good idea to open the computer seal?

I ask him for a picture showing the seal.... and all of a sudden the auction is gone

:rofl:

Then it shows up again with some more pictures, one from a workbench and a few showed the most horrible battery leak i saw, + an exploded (!) cap.... i ask him does the mouse work? He says he got rid of all monitors.... and cant test it anymore...


Sorry for the "lucky" winner of that auction

I sold my A4000D for £200 and it was upgraded with the latest Buster etc.

I sold my A4000D for $0.00
I sold my A500 for $0.00
I traded my A1000 for a fax machine

I am really surprised at how many ppl demand absolute top dollar for their ancient Amiga hardware that they aren't using.

It didn't use to matter to me what ppl sold their old Amigas for.

But ever since I became in the market for an Amiga to replace my trusty A1200 which is acting all flakey and lost 1 side of its audio channels, I can't find any replacement and if I did it would cost like $4000.00 for a machine I only paid $1000.00 for in 1999/2000.
