Dunno it's value, but I would be interested in buying it.

edit..
not sure if this is an Amiga tablet. If not then i am not interested.
I am interested in an Amiga graphics tablet though.

ok - if I can find out some idea of whether it's worth 50p or 50 quid I'll stick it on ebay - I'm in Italy, so bear in mind postage

yes, it's an amiga tablet - quite rare too, I think - I've still got all the original documentation (including the warranty card, unbelievably!) and I've tried a search online and can't find anything like it, which is why I want to know what it's worth. I bought it new, way back when (89 or 90 I think) - my boffin years! The amiga driver software is AProDraw. I'm attaching photos of all the gear as I'd really like to get some info about it. You'll see there's some warping on the plastic overlay sheet (heat damage - I live in Italy and stupidly put the thing in my attic when I moved here!) I presume the thing also has its own power supply lead which I have, as yet, to track down. However, it should be somewhere as I never throw stuff like that away. Age is a terrible thing where the memory is concerned!

By the way - I've also got a boxed copy of XCad Draw including dongle and (massive) manual and I would love to have any info about that too!

just let me know what you think is a decent price to pay - as I said originally, I'm trying to find out myself, as I haven't a clue either!

Is there really someone stupid enough to pay more than 50 Euros for a graphics tablet that they will inevitably end up not using? Personally I would think a realistic price for a tablet would be 10 to 20 Euros, its rarity for the Amiga enthusiast would maybe add on to that. How many fad devices like this have we bought for the PC thinking at the time WOW that's handy only to find out that it was much simpler and quicker using the mouse and keyboard!

Good luck to the silly beggar that gazumped you, will someone please notify the authorities that another one of their inmates has escaped

Congratulations M8, either the buyer is completely insane or dedicated to the Amiga to pay so much for a graphics tablet or there is an American version of Monopoly missing some dosh, any one of those are possibilities when you consider that the podscat pt 3030 is a windows tablet with an amiga driver

@hettle, congrats on your sale. As a favour to the amiga community would you consider making an ADF image of the driver disks?

Many thanks.

kind of hard as, obviously, I haven't got the stuff any more - but there's one up on ebay USA - just type in "graphics tablet amiga" and you come up with the pic. and description "R&DL APraDraw Graphics Tablet Driver - Commodore Amiga" - there's a typo since it should read 'AProDraw' - hope that helps
