It's not "bait", I just got tired of people nickle and dimeing me to death, and just took it to the recyclers, solved all my problems.

Not trying to sound snarky but if you obviously hate Amiga so much, why are you still here?

Heck, even giving the stuff away on Craigslist would've been a better option...

Just threw out 2 Amiga 3000, one with a case one without, one Amiga 4000, with case none of them worked. but they did have the plug in card boards, and the power supplies. Good by to space taker uppers. Now I am getting ready to throw out a stack of Amiga Disks boxes that go 2 disks across and about 100 disks back on each side out, I have 5 boxes or more stacked about 5 foot high. Had to get rid of this stuff because we are moving.
I have no idea what your talking about, so here is a doggy with a small pancake on his head.

Idiot! Is that what you wanted to hear? You're posting on an Amiga thread not RecoveringHoarders.com what do you expect me to say?

I don't hate Amigas, I still have my A2000 and A1200, I just threw out all the cards that I didn't need, plus an A500 that I haven't used in 10 years.

2 Video toasters
2 TBC II's
1 A2091
2 kitchen Sync's
1 personal Animation Controller
1 1084s monitor
1 ram card
2 AG1960 VCR's
boxes of books, manuals and (bad) disks

All the programs have been archived as .adf's
Most of the good disks have been reformatted to be used in my Emax sampler.

That's what happens when you move from a 2500 sqft house to a 700 sqft mobile home, you have no choice but to PURGE, when I went through the boxes in the garage, I never opened any of them, if I could not remember what was in them, then they could not have been to important, so I just took them to the dump.

It's called Craigslist.  Or Freecycle.  Heck, even post on Amiga.org and see if anyone wants to come get the stuff.  Just because it's no longer important or valuable to you, doesn't mean it isn't valuable to someone.  :(

In defense, I have found in the past times when it was impossible to GIVE stuff away, even on CL or FC.  It was heartbreaking but I did have to throw some stuff out as I could no longer move it around or store it.

Hummm.  Guess it might be location based.  Among other random junk I've gotten rid of, I've had no problem giving away a van-load of Dell monitor stands in the past (we upgraded all the monitors in the office to specialized mounts).  And heck, who even wants a couple of those things, let alone a van full?  ;)  (see attached picture for what I mean)

Oh well, next time y'all feel like throwing something away, let me know.  Maybe I can find a good home for it.  :)

I posted ads on craigslist, first to try and sell them, then to give them away, and even when they where free, I would get guys asking if I could deliver them to f***ing Vancouver, sure, I'm going to drive 150km each way in bumper to bumper traffic to deliver them... NOT!
So now I don't even waste my time, I just throw everything in the truck, and take it to the recycler.
