You're wrong. My 1232-50 rare NOW. ACA1233-55 360 Euro, minimal (3-4%) faster, than my 1232 = 300 Euro. Old B1230 200-350 Euro. Etc.
New, or old, irrelevant. All ACA card = USED CPU. All other components old version, not produced now.

1233 CPU swap easy??? HAHA.:rofl: Easy modify to 50 MHz??? HEHE :laugh1:
I will get back my money.

Put it on eBay at 320 euro and you will sell it for sure : eBay is full of rich people...

320 Euro too little. If I advertise on ebay 250 Euro, then ebay final value fee  30 USD (27  Euro), paypal fee 13 Euro. 27+13=40 Euro. 250-40=210 Euro,  too little.
Ebay price min. 340-350 Euro minus fees = remain 300 Euro. Min. price 300 Euro.
350 Euro buy it now price = impossible. Nobody pays this much.
Original new ACA1233-55 360 Euro.

All wrong : eBay fee is 7.50% and Paypal fee is 3.4%

Not wrong. My real ebay selling parameters.
Sold 250 Euro. Ebay final value fee 29,69 USD = 27,7 Euro, paypal fee 12,52 Euro.
40 Euro / 250 Euro = 16% fee.

Maybe it's location-based, or different where you sell the item?  A quick check I see 10% and 2.9%, respectively. But there's so many variables involved, such as the length of your listing, whether you list it on one of their special "no fee days", etc.

Back in the day (years ago) I sold tons of electronics on ebay and had a rating well into the hundreds. I never felt the fees were too onerous. It's "the cost of doing business" same as if you had to pay taxes selling in a retail store, or pay for gas to drive to meet someone for an item sold on Craigslist or the local want ads, etc. Somewhere along the way you're always going to have to pay something extra. At least ebay/PayPal are pretty up-front with what they charge. IMHO OP needs to suck it up and stop whining and complaining. :laughing:

250 Euro simple buy it now sold = 16% ebay+paypal fee BRUTAL!
300 Euro = 17-18%. 1000 Euro 20-22%??? Ebay=bullsh@@.
If I sold a 1000 Euro thing, then fees = 200 Euro?!?! This not normal.
Real ebay+paypal fee = max. 6-8% 1-2000 Euro.
I can sell valuable (200-2000 Euro) things nowhere. Ebay = brutal fees, retro forums = no buyer, or rules = bullsh@@.

Not all retro forums bad.
Many products are sold on forums (expensively, and under 1 hour-1 days!), why I cannot sell it? :angryfire::angryfire:
My price real. 300 Euro in Germany, Western Europe, USA, etc. = nothing.
The customers have much money. They bought many expensive (2-4× price!) pruducts.
C64 reloaded, Vampire 600, 500, etc.
727 USD = 648 Euro: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-500-accelerator-Vampire-500-V2-/262632677230
Normal price 250-300 Euro. Etc. I see money wasting everywhere.

C64 SuperCPU128 1400 Euro real price? http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?77076-CMD-SuperCPU-128-SuperRAM-16MB-MetalDust
Why??? :crazy::crazy: 20 MHz, 16 MB, 8-24 bits only!
My 1232 50 MHz, 128 MB, 32 bits! 68030 50 Mhz power = min. 65816 200 Mhz.
If SCPU 1400 Euro OK, then my 1232 300 Euro why not OK?
I live 400 Euro/months money.

The Amiga and Commodore retro prices = fun.
SCPU made in 198x, 1400 Euro. My 1232 made in 2012, 300 Euro, to sell impossible since Sept. 9.
30 years old hardwares = 1000-3000 Euro unbelievable.

Why???


Because not many were made and people want them (the lack of emulators supporting SCPU have made it worse than it could have been).

This guy is completely unhinged. He obviously doesn't understand common sense rules of supply and demand,  or economics. :lol:

Where is common sense rules of supply and demand,  or economics?
All price unreal, caotic.
The retro Amiga community has only 3-4000 active members on the world. How may 3000 member cause big demand, and high prices?

Surely it's much higher than 4000. Not every Amiga user is signed up on forums or answers surveys on Amiga usage. I know I certainly didn't until 2009.
