Didn't Softhut used to sell Amiga 4000T's. I wonder if they still have any of these in stock.

Actually I know they atleast sold one shortly before they more or less vanished.

But it's rather doubtfull that such a prices item hadn't found it's way onto ebay someway in the last years.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

Yes they had them for a long time.  I have a new empty tower that came from them.  I think they may have had all the parts and assembled the computer when you put in your custom order.  If you have noticed they have sold at least one motherboard and several other components advertised as new in their recent EBay sales.  I think it got hard for them to sell a $2000 plus computer that was outdated in the 2000 years when you could get a used one on EBay for $600 to $800 at the time.

My Tek 2060 I got from you died around 7 years ago. Hoping for a replacement soon, maybe an FPGA that's not $500. For sure an Indivision ECS, maybe some new drives and maybe a Mediator for my 4000T. I bought it from a guy that either worked for you or lived close to you.

Wow, good to see you back Joe. Still using my mediator and csppc I bought from you years ago. Though its in an A4000T now and not the 3000 any longer.

What made you decide to come back in to things?

Hi Acill -

Good to see you as well !

Well, we came across a slew of new inventory, and I decided to clean out the warehouse. A lot of NEW items that haven't seen the light of day in years...slowly but surely becoming available to the community.

Any front doors for a Quickpack A4000T?? Like everyone else, the latch on mine doesnt work anymore due to the peg breaking off.

I don't consider being realistic as dumping bad vibes. If they didn't have enough business to keep the old store going how is an eBay store going to improve anything?

Why did Mech set up his own site store?

"To Avoid The Insane Ebay Fees".

Now, that's what I call memory retention. :razz:

haha impressive.. paypal fees were trivial compared to ebay+PP

um,gvp didnt make the warpengine ;)   it was macrosystem.. a fine board..better than the gvp stuff in most cases.
I think the last thing joe was selling was the GVP 4060DT ... i had bought one long ago. With a hacked rom to work with sfs it was a quick board.
