Hello everyone,
I have decided to sell my Amiga A4000/40 system. I had plans to restore the unit completely and bring it to "like new" condition, unfortunately I have no time to dedicate to it, so it is time to pass it on to another Amiga aficionado.
A little back story to this Amiga. In April of this year I acquired it from the original owner who is an ex-Pixar animator. This owner told me that animators at Pixar would use these machines to test out quick hand-drawn animations using the Vid24 to capture the sketches before beginning the 3D animation process. About 10 years ago he decided to retire this Amiga: he de-soldered the cell clock battery, as he knew it would eventually leak, and put the unit in storage. Early this year before moving to Europe he re-discovered the Amiga in his storage and sold it to me. He provided me with all the original equipment - computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse and disks. The next few months I found and purchased a number of upgrades I planned to install - some I did, others I have not yet installed.
Here is a list of the specs and the accessories and upgrades included in this sale:
- Amiga 4000/40 complete with mouse, keyboard
- Amiga 1084S monitor
- AGA - FlickerFixer/ScanDoubler II V2.0
- Amiga 040/060 Upgrade Adapter by Mozart & Matze with 68060/50 processor and ROM
- Individual Computers BigRAM Plus 256Mb Ram Zorro III card + 16Mb RAM on board for a total of 272Mb RAM
- Blue Ribbon Soundworks One Stop Music Shop Zorro II card with daughterboard
- Vid24 image capture external peripheral
- Amigakit Super Buster update
- Amigakit Lithium coin cell clock battery adapter
- SD to IDE Hard Drive adapter with Transcend 8GB microSD card (original mechanical hard drive included)
- Plus many other items as you can see in the main photo - Amiga 520 video adapter, Perfect Sound adapter, disks, cables, etc.
I am offering this complete system for $1200 here on Amibay and on Craigslist before putting it up for auction on eBay. I am located in San Mateo, California (near San Francisco) and am hoping to sell to a local buyer. If there is a buyer interested who cannot pick-up, I can pack and ship the complete system (sorry I am not interested in breaking it up) safely anywhere, however, as you can imagine, the entire package is quite large and heavy and will cost a lot to ship. I estimate $200-$300 in continental US and at least $500 overseas. I know because I manage a ceramic shop and we pack and ship our delicate wares all over the world.
I am including many high resolution photos so that you can see the condition. Please note that the LCD monitor in one of the images is not included - it was used only to show the functionality of the Scandoubler.
Should you have any questions please let me know.
Thank you for your interest and happy viewing.
