Addicted to eBay
 
I'm addicted to buying Amiga stuff on eBay at the moment, I just can't help myself, Amiga books, Amiga Mags, mouse mats etc, honestly at this rate I'll be broke, does anyone have a cure? :shocked

Yakumo9275 09 April 2013 16:10

a cure? yeah the wife. when one of you is on the couch, its time to sell that stuff back on ebay :)

manic23 09 April 2013 16:50

lol, OK, so I need to get married, Ok got it, thanks

demolition 09 April 2013 16:53

When you get married, the problem solves itself as you will not have any money left to spend on ebay.

Retroplay 09 April 2013 17:14

Hah that's not a problem as far as I'm concerned as I promised myself never to get married. :p

This danish phrase seems to fit in here nicely: "Gift er noget man tager for ikke at blive det". :D

To avoid confusion for peeps using Google translate.. Gift in danish means poison & married. :lol:

Get a smaller apartment. Campervan maybe. the space in those limit itself. ;)

I have filled my home office. exchange some books that isn't computer with some that is at times but soon i run out of room there too. i used to have old cameras for display, now they are replaced by extras not currently connected :P

I'm very happy to hear that I'm not the only afflicted Amiga user LOL, maybe I should start a support group n EAB? :)

Implement a FIFO mechanism where for everything you buy you must first sell something?

W...W....What? get rid of Amiga stuff!! I don't think I could, it would be like selling my soul :crying

lordofchaos 10 April 2013 19:21

Ok don't shoot me for asking this guys, but I've always wanted to buy an Atari ST from ebay (my first 16-bit machine) but I'd like to load it up with games like the Amiga with the Compact Flash Card as a hard drive, is there an equivalent for the Atari? Otherwise It's just a case of locating lots of floppy disks...I can't afford this stuff of course and it's not practical at all, but that's why I'm here!

diablothe2nd 10 April 2013 20:23

ask a silly question..... :bash :laughing

on a serious note, pretty much anything that came out for amiga, had a similar product for atari (and vice versa) when it comes to hardware mods.

Amiga stuff Im fine with on ebay, my problem is ordering japanese super famicom and sega saturn games that will bankrupt me.

I buy more C64 stuff then amiga stuff on ebay, Im sort of happy with A1200 and an 030 in it, I just honestly cant afford an 060, or a FastATA which are the only 2 things I really want, so I dont even look anymore.
