Amiga Marketplace This forum is here so that members can alert other members to Amiga items they've seen on eBay (or other auctions). If you are selling Amiga items on eBay, you might let us know about them here. Likewise, if you're selling Amiga items sans eBay, this is the "for sale" forum.

Default Ebay: To good to be thrue?
Huge apologies if this is the real thing but this system just smells a bit fishy.

Among other things I noticed this:

"1 CD mit AMIGA/OS4.0 orginal"

http://cgi.ebay.de/Amiga-4000-040-Revision-B-Kick-40-68-SCSI-HD-70-GB_W0QQitemZ200159408638QQihZ010QQcategoryZ8142QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

And the seller has no record .....

Any thoughts?

Probably a mistake; he meant OS3.9.

Probably a betatester sellig it`s gear (he just sold an A1 for about 1000 EUR). I`m pretty sure he violates the NDA he signed by doing this. This might be one reason why he has a "new" Ebay accout, to keep his identity secret.
