*SOLD* Amiga 500

[Ute]

The Good:

Amiga 500 Rev.6A

MegAChip upgrade - 2 MB Memory

Rom switcher 1.3 & 2.1

Gotek Drive with 8GB usb stick with some things on it – PM for more info

Trap Door cover

Side door cover – Rare these days

New, modern power supply

 

The Bad:

The Rom switcher – It changes the rom every time the power is turned on, or reset.

 

The Ugly:

Nothing too bad here, looks good for it’s age. There was a battery leak at some point on the memory expansion, but it hasn’t affected the board.

 

The rom switcher doesn’t function how it was originally intended and switches every time there is a soft reset(Ctrl+ left A + right A) or any time the power is switched on. Some games like Star Wars only work with the 1.3 rom so to use the Gotek you must be using the 2.1 rom before selecting a rom dependent game – a pain I know. I’m including some spare chips(Gary, Paula, Denise, and a CIA) keep them or sell them. I’ve tested the keyboard as best as I can(See picture).

I'll consider any reasonable offers.

I'm not seriously interested, so feel free to ignore me and just take the free bump, but what would be a reasonable offer on such a rig these days?

Well if eBay is allowed to be used as a gauge:

Mine is a bit nicer than that offering in my opinion, but I would prefer to give someone here a more reasonable deal.
