That Fate of Atlantis box looks mint so that must be worth £30+ on its own! Shame it is not going to be seperated up as I have friends in Indiana.:-(

It always astonishes me that someone could have a collection like that, and *not* be active or known in the forums.

That's understandable, not everyone wants the attention.
I know a few heavy collectors that never advertise what they have or any details that would help find who they are...

Yeah, I get wanting to remain unknown, if only to keep people from showing up on your doorstep (I don't want visitors, really,) especially as someone who is not involved in social media, you won't find me on any of the locator lists, etc.  Though, I'm sure I have spilled enough info here on AO for someone to put together a fairly good guess

I find the big shame to be not so much the equipment but the knowledge which is held separate.  Honestly, while none of us have a requirement or responsibility to share knowledge with each other, I bet there is a lot of untapped knowledge and experience out there.

Exactly.

He just listed on Amibay for $19,000

Mostly untested is a risk. Last month I was given quite a bit, Amiga 2000, 4000, and a 500. That and tons of software, manuals, cd drives, video toasters, accelerators sound samplers. And three crt monitors. Except for Amiga 4000 and 500 most is junk or just not worth fixing.

Don't count out that not happening.  I suspect he will either part it out because no one takes the lot or, if someone does, they will part it out.  Really.. who needs 21 Amiga 2000s???

Some hoarder probably died. At least the stuff didn't immediately get tossed in the trash by an uncaring family or estate.

Hey be nice, I’m still alive!..

Prove you're not a bot...

Lol..just teazin it ain’t me, ha.  But makes you wonder how he got all that stuff. Maybe worked for a college back in the day and rescued the stuff from being thrown away??

[QuikSanz]

Someone close should offer half for the lot and piece it out. Should make some bucks but will be some work. Imagine all those games and machines back in use.

[David Wright]

Not even worth a quater of that. A good part of those won%&$#?@!%&$#?@!%&$#?@!8217;t work I bet.

[wiser3]

Hmmm... i live about 3 and a half hours from him. I can barely afford to fed to myself though, so i won't be buying anything anytime soon.

[QuikSanz]

Those who live close talk him to you folks "having a close look at them", and piece them out for him. Put it up here and can fight over it.

PS: There is a Whole Lot of software and Zorro stuff.

Seriously, don't sell to the bot.

Naah.. only small minority of collectors are on this kind of forums. I know many collectors (some with pretty impressive collections) and "normal" users in my city too, but I'm the only one writing on forums.
