Some spring cleaning for me, I am selling my Amiga 500 with the GVP530 accelerator. I would like $750 plus shipping and any paypal fees. If you have Wise I would prefer that, but paypal is fine.

Everything works great, the fan is noisy. The GVP530 switch was replaced at some point. It also has some giant caps, thought about replacing them but they work fine so I left them as is. Battery was snipped off the A501 and it no longer has the case.

No Power supply or mouse is included for the A500. The only power supply included is for the GVP530.

- Full 68030@50
- 68882 FPU
- 1mb Chip (via the expansion card)
- 8mb Fast
- ZuluScsi Compact RP2040 w/bracket
- Original GVP530 PSU
- Active SCSI terminator
- 2.04 Kickstart
- Floppy Drive works great. Cleaned, lubed and caps replaced.

I’ve replaced the switch in the A530. They aren’t hard to find. What’s hard to find is finding it in beige :). Black ones are available. Was the case modded for this switch?
 
It was not modified, they just used some metal plates to hold it in place. It came with the original switch. I'm guessing it probably just needs to be cleaned.

Hang on to the beige cover. You can get a new black switch for under 10 bucks and just re used the beige cover. Or for whomever buys this. I am sitting on my hands to not hit the declare interest button. I aleady have an A530 :) Even tho this one has a bonus 500 :)
 
I took the original switch apart and cleaned it out, works fine now. I will include the replacement switch as a backup. I also replaced the fan with a Noctua as it was too noisy. I will include the original fan.
