The most recent thing I have picked up was 3 Amiga 2000's from JiggyMF, all rev 6 motherboarbs, 1 with GVP 030 Combo and 1 with GVP HC8II, these are fine machines almost without battery damage.
For about 5 crates of beer, I paid cash, but this gives you an idea of what I paid.
But what I have picked up in the last months is truely too much, you just wouldn't believe it.

I've got a Taiwanese megadrive almost completely identical, box and all. Only difference is it outputs 50hz PAL and has different leaflets included. Got it sealed from a bloke on ebay.

It did not take it at first, the screen settings where broken, but after a re-installing morphos perfectly working

Yes Salaxi, that is rather stupid, Anyhow, we have ecocheques to buy ecologic products from our company's
You can only buy eco friendly products with them...
Well sort off..Well you know we are creative the Belgian.. I ended up with a new screen and a grill for meat. Real ecofriendly
So I went to the first shop that would allow me to buy, and asked for bright white, monitor, yes sir, we will call you, and voila...

Dear All,
yesterday i was at the birthdayparty of my father in law.
Nice party, good food, and i was stonecoldsober (one of the many benefits of having a car).
At some point the laughter fled into the clear sky untill suddenly my brother in law broke the silence by blurting out "why P1, you have been silent all evening".
So with everyone's attention focussed on me i quickly evaluated my options and decided to "engage in battle".
Mumbled something like: i was just thinking about you braging about your new 'puter, but i am working on a machine from 1998 that does the same.
LOL at first he thought i mentioned a price, not a year.
For a while we compared mhz, bytes and operating systems, everybody joined with either their newest machines or their oldest memories.
When i mentioned the A2000's scsi setup, he suddenly stood up, picked up a box FROM NEXT TO THE GARBAGEDUMPSTER and said: check this out P1, before i throw it away.
Yours truly opened the box, closed it again and said: i'll put it in my car now.
Evening suddenly went sloOoOoOoOow, i couldnt wait to get home and
test the stuff.
The party ended after a lot of fun and chitchat, wifey and me went home after a nice and enjoyable birthdayparty.
Things in the box:
3 scsi1 disks ibm
1 scsi1 disk seagate st14207n
2 scsi3 disks.
1 external scsi3 cdrw
1 internal scsi1 cdrom
2 nics
2 scsi3 cards
1 ava1502 card with terminated flatcable on it
1 internal modem
bunch of memory
So i tested some of the stuff:
3 scsi1 disks all worked fine (2 dors32160 and 1 dcas32160).
Scsi1 disk seagate (st14207n 4.3gb full height) did spin, but too loud to be used.
External scsi3 cdrw contains a scsi1 hp drive, reads but very slow.
Internal scsi1 cdrom dead as a doornail.
hehehe the saying "every dog has his day" comes to mind
Grtz, PymerOne.

Today I received my A1000 from Almaniac (cheers chap!) 
Good news: this appears to have a known motherboard config in it, unlike my other Amiga 1000 which is a very, very early PAL model based on the NTSC motherboard with daughter card.
