Hi and welcome to EAB.
First things first, don't sell it! Set it up and use it. EAB will help get you up and running. If you really must sell, then you should try Amibay. http://www.amibay.com/ Set a price and wait for buyers. No fees! If I were selling your rig, I would set a price of £80. It may sell quicker if you split the A1200 apart from the Monitor and Printer. The A1200 should get £55. Good luck |

Yes you can see lots of prices on ebay.
 My prices are based on what I would pay and expect to get for your gear. Feel free to pitch in at Amibay with a higher price, you may well get it. Monitor prices are tough. They have value, but shipping is a killer. If it is good shape, £20. |

Don't forget, Amibay requires you to set a price. It isn't a bidding site.

The Department of Psychology in York University did the above test in nearly 1000 Amigans around the world a couple of years ago. 999 of them, regretted the moment they sold their Amiga.
Good luck.

Have you any idea what you will get for the a1200 if the a1200 is Commodores original one (PAL) not NTSC.
Then I could be attempt to buy it, but send it to Denmark with all the stuff would be expensive. I could do bank transfer I would pay around £125 (included sending) but I must wait a month or two. |

Whilst there are no Fees charged by AmiBay, the purchaser will still have to pay PayPal fees if they use their service. The buyer can avoid the PayPal fees if they make a "Gift" payment to you, but if this method is utilised & something goes wrong with the transaction, there is no support from PayPal to resolve the matter. @ thread For those not aware: If you make a Gift payment to anyone via PayPal & don't have the amount in your PayPal account, you have to pay a small fee to use your PayPal assigned Bank Account/Credit card in order to complete the Gift payment.

Hey Kinny, long time no speak. I've made lots of gift payments (to people i've traded with and built up some trust) and there is no fee if you use a paypal balance or direct bank funding (at least with my account). If you use your debit/credit card then theres a small fee

Perhaps it was because Santander are better known as a Building Society?
