Echoing the above.  However if you still want to sell it, I'll start the bidding at $2 USD.  ;)

These days, probably more than you should, after all that is a fairly nice system.
I'd give it a minimum of $600, and it would likely sell for more.
Although, as posted previously, you'll regret it.

@ carvedeye

if it's in working condition with no issues and case in good-great condition I would say I wouldn't sell it for less than $900 + USD. Similar systems have sold for alot more over at AmiBay and ridiculous amounts on EBay.  If it had an 060 or PPC board than that's another stratosphere for classic amigans :hammer:

oh & as other have mentioned yes you'll eventually regret selling it and eventually you'll end up spending 2 times more to get a similar setup in the future..& yes only AMIGA:hammer:

I sold my A1200 setup a number of years ago and have regretted it ever since.  Luckily I have an A 4000 but getting it all upgraded and trying to find some of the stuff I sold is expensive and hard to find.  If you do sell it I would say around 900 bucks as it looks like a nice system.  Think hard though because if you try to piece one together again with those specs it'll run you twice that, if you can get all the stuff

It can be a bit time consuming, but if you wish to achieve the best price,  then I recommend you dismantle the Amiga and sell each part individually including the games. To find the current market value of each part do some research on eBay using the "completed listings" to give you rough estimate of what your hardware and games might  all be worth. You might prefer a quick sale, or for the Amiga to go to a good home, however just beware that the Amiga scene is crawling with resellers these days, so if you don't take the time then someone else may have already done the math.

Also as others have said be 100% sure you won't ever want to rebuild a similar spec machine in future, even though your hardware is modest, finding the parts might be difficult, prices keep rising and if Elbox should ever go out of business the resellers will move in and triple the price of that hardware overnight.

Good luck.

Basically, this stuff is worthless, I tried selling a pile of stuff and had no luck at all, and for the few things I did sell, I only got pennies on the dollar, so it just was not worth boxing and shipping a 100 packages all over the world, so I just took it all to the electronics recycling depot.
And no, I don't regret it!
