You are a madman.

16 January 2003, 17:48

How much did you pay exactly?

AEV · 16 January 2003, 18:17

Holy shit, where'd you ship this stuff from?

DPainter · 16 January 2003, 18:52

I'm going to print this out and show it to my wife whenever she complains about the old A2000HD and A1000 sitting in the second bedroom.

Lynk · 16 January 2003, 18:54

LOL!

kriz · 16 January 2003, 18:54

wow! way to go man ... hehe

16 January 2003, 19:03

the seller is in OZ also
but few thousand miles away from my state.
It cost about US$1000 for this whole stuff.
but prolly shipping it cost more than that
LOL

Twistin'Ghost · 16 January 2003, 19:49

Aye Carumba! I know it will take forever to get around to it, but please check those disks for any titles that might be on my MIA list. HOL/CAPS scans are also a groovy way to make friends and influence people...

RetroMan · 16 January 2003, 20:29

Hmmm

No CDTV on that list

Jan · 16 January 2003, 23:24

I can't even imagine how much SPACE you need for this.... incredible!

this might take months

Overdoc · 17 January 2003, 03:20

Oh, just such a tiny collection ?

Cute

Hey, this isn't even worth to be called a collection !
Only 23 Amiga-500 ?
I think you really need a few more

Btw, you aren't living in a 30sqm flat, aren't you

Unknown_K · 17 January 2003, 05:19

Are you planning on reselling all those items? I dont see why you would want that many A500's.

Out of curiosity whats the voltage used in australia

Lynk · 17 January 2003, 05:44

The voltage in Australia is 240 Volts.

Miggy2TheMax · 17 January 2003, 06:47

Wait, let me guess you bought it off a guy from Perth on ebay... I was looking at that lot aswell... but like you I live 3000km+ from him and I live in an apartment with a shitload of amiga gear as it is

Well done on getting an awsome piece of amiga gear. If your interested in selling some bits, (because I see you have some spares

) pm me. cheers.

17 January 2003, 16:40

yeah this guy is moving out to a new home.
decides to sell off all his amiga stuffs.
That list on his ebay auction is obsolete, the above is also not current as he found more stuff when cleaning his house for the move.

I dont think I will spend so much on shipping, instead I will rent a car with trailer and spend 2 days driving all the way to his state
LOL

I sure hope on the way back there wont be any rain along the way

Its going to be hell to check all those disks, but I'll check for any games on MIA list

Yep no CDTV, I asked the guy and he said that time was too expensive to import a CDTV from UK

my house is small but wife and son dont argue much I use one room dedicated for amiga stuffs.

ElectroBlaster · 18 January 2003, 17:46

Yeh but i bet you will moan cuzz you cant move around in that room until you sort it out.... that lot will give you months of endless fun too!

Thats the sign of a true amiga nut! when you are swamped from all sides by amiga kit

19 January 2003, 00:57

BOTH a 500 AND a 1200 was wild???!!??

What can I say, impressive.

As mentioned earlier, let the rest of us know, (in a year or two, when you've figured out what you want for yourself) if you have any spares.

I know I live on the other side of the world, but I'm sure we can figure something out. I have family in the US, and maybe I can convince them to visit you and buy what I want (that is IF you do want to sell any of it)

Or you could make a net-cafe with amiga's :hoo

cv643d · 19 January 2003, 01:49

Please take som pictures of the 23 A500's lined up when you picked them up...
