FA: Indivision / Toastscan External Scandoubler & Flicker Fixer

alexh · 28 March 2008, 11:10

Here.

Arguably the best external scandoubler & flickerfixer for the Amiga. Works great with A1000, A500(+), A600, CDTV, A2000, B2000, A4000(T).

Also known as the EZ-VGA, MV1200 and AmiScan

I'm not the vendor, I am just advertising for an acquaintance.

Over 300 bucks?!

Wow.

And you keep telling us there's no market for new scandoublers.. ;-)

coze · 28 March 2008, 12:27

Ahem

I know Alexh is a cool guy, but if you don't apply the rules for everyone, there's meaning in having rules at all ... (also I can't understand why alexh is doing this for him cause he's already posted the link in the proper place)

Seeing this go for that much is making want to get rid of all my amiga stuff and just stick with emulation from now on.

alexh · 28 March 2008, 14:14

I honestly didn't know about said rule. I will follow it in future.

I just looked in the Marketplace forum, didn't see a posting from Mr.Luff and thought I'd try and help him out as he's trying to break the previous record for an external scandoubler set earlier week of $910 (£453, €576)

I actually said I thought there was no profit in making a NEW scandoubler. I still think this is true. £500 hardly covers the cost of a weeks R&D let alone prototypes, production costs, tooling costs etc.) But you never know

keropi · 28 March 2008, 14:25

that is an idiotic price, both this and the 910$ one.

I Know, But I just got hold of / repaired an A2000 ECS with a Flicker Fixer, and the Screen display is just gorgeous..

If I paid that much for a scan doubler, I think I would get divorced..

Well, the prices these fetch seem to hint that there's at least some market for them.. :-)

Oh well, I'm happy with my current solutions, even though they are not tailored for Amiga.

blade002 · 29 March 2008, 14:37

Well the one that i am using right now looks identical to this one, but i only paid about $170 for it about 2 years back, and the screen display is rock steady and as clear as a bell in hires interlace

WoW! I can not beleave the prices on external scandoublers these days.

Last year bought my external scandouber MV1200 from somebody
off Amibench for $85.00 and price includes shipping.

Infact, it was about this time last year when I got my scandoubler.
Works great too!

Just wish Amibench was still around.

Graham Humphrey · 29 March 2008, 21:09

Have you seen Amibay? A more than suitable replacement for Amibench I think you'll find

Kind words, much appreciated.
