And? Why do you compare the 68060/50 card to my 1232/50 card? You compare an apple to a pear, or a Volkswagen to a BMW. Meaningless.
No sysspeed. Onto an average use suitable my card. 68060/50-100 MHz unnecessary. The WinUAE free.

To everybody: All important information can be found in the 1. message. Not my duty to answer all messages. Nobody wants to shop, then why you write here?

VW's are great cars...BMW's are also great cars. Hmm.... I see what you mean now, they're both great cards.

The card you have pictures of is made in 2012. That means its initial purchase date is somewhat later than 2012. This means that in some European countries there are actually still warranty attached to the card.
In Norway there is a by law a 5 year warrant period from initial purchase date.

As far as I understand, the CPU on the card has been exchanged by a faster CPU, and hence the card has been modified. IOWs, the warranty is void.

I don't see a problem selling a pre-owned card with a modified CPU. If the buyer wants such a card, go ahead. If the card sells for the price... well, go ahead. I just have a personal opinion on the price point, especially in comparison to existing *new* cards with similar specifications that sell *with warranty* for a comparable or lower price.

That all does not mean that the card might not be sold for this price... As a buyer I should probably check for better offers of new hardware first. If I don't... well, my own fault. I just don't want to advocate such business.

Price is one thing, I wouldn't comment anyones asked price.

Another thing is that he said that 68060 is not 4x faster, it is much less. That made some comments here.

I have great complaints when someone takes a product that is being retailed, modify it and ask for a pricing higher than the retail price is.
And in the process dropping all warranties.

If it was an aging old blizzard or an Apollo, i could not care less.... but the aca's are still being made and they sell with warranties.

However, i also have complaints about Individual for not making and selling 50Mhz versions them self...

OOh... and as he comments the pricing if he puts it on ebay. he is aware of the actual value of the card. and still he tries to push an insane pricing on the market.....

Made in 2012, was 2 year warranty. There is not guarantee, if I do not modify it already. I modified, because was not guarantee already.

With 50 MHz CPU 300 Euro + shipping, with 33 MHz CPU 250 Euro + shipping.

Sold 200 Euro, because real price 300 Euro. The buyer will sell it in later more expensive (300 Euro).
If somebody wants to sell something too cheaply, i don't care. It's none  of my business. I will not sell it at 2/3 price, I have plenty of  time.
I would have been able to sell it below 30 minutes cheaply (200 Euro).
The value of my 1232-50 card will rise and rise, because they never produce a faster card.

I hope you have plenty of time. say, .... about 25 years or so.
That's the time it will take to make this board of yours rare. Since it is still being made and retailed people will spend money on something new and with warranty...
If my choice is to pay you 300 EUR plus shipping VS paying 290 EUR (plus shipping) for something new and with warranty. I'd choose the warranty any day of the week and twice on Sunday....
I have been looking at the pictures available at the ACA 1233 cards. and it seems fairly easy to do a cpu swap and modify it to 50Mhz. It don't look to complex.

But considering the aca's are still being made and retailed new, You are never going to get back your investment in time to do the work, and that is just being honest with you. At least not as long as they are in stores. nothing wrong with your work.
But the aca's are still being made.... If i were in your shoes, id hamster these board like a mad hatter, modify and wait patiently till they are rare before selling them. then you will most likely get your money back....

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.
