Collection "Thin-out".

Golden Image 3A-1D disk drive with track display. Little yellowing to the front, and a little yellow "stripe" far back on the drive. Working fine.
It looks cool when it goes through the tracks.

Asking price 50 Euros + P&P + PP fees. SOLD OUTSIDE AMIBAY!

GVP A530 Turbo. 40 Mhz. Acellerator card with SCSI controller.
Processor MC68EC030. 2 Mb. ram. including original black PSU.
HDD is 120 mb.
I never really used it. Just bought it as a curiosity,
and since I am moving away from Amiga 500 I better let other people have fun with it.
I have of course connected it to my A500, and the fan powers up.
Switching to "Turbo/HDD", The Amiga andt the GVP Power LED comes on, but the HDD does not spin up. Only Black/Purple screen.
So as far as I know, the HDD is a dead. I have no other HDD to try.

I tried removing/disconnection HDD. That helped briefly, booting the Amiga a couple of times. I even ran sysinfo from a workbench disk. It showed the CPU as a 68030, but then the Amiga froze.
I have no clue what is wrong. Now everybody knows more or less what oocurs when trying to run the A530 Turbo.
It is Your choice if You still want to buy it. Maybe SCSI controller, maybe the Rom, maybe the Ram, maybe the CPU?
Original GVP installation disk is also included.

1 month ago it powered up fine, and started booting from the HDD, but I did not have a Kickstart 2.0 installed in the Amiga, as requested when it was booting, so I only got half-way.

The colour of the plastic is nice and bright for its age.

Asking price 150 Euros + P&P + PP fees.

I will prefer shipping to Europe. (I will do worldwide, but it is quite expensive)
Regarding shipping, I would say for the GVP A530, around 30-35 Euros,
and for the Golden Image the same. Both tracked parcel.


Both items are up for sale, elsewhere.

More pictures will come.
