Hi Guys, I'm new to Amibay so I wanted to say hello.

I have a 16-bit PC/AT 286 Vortex ATonce emulator for sale, currently working on my Amiga 500+.

Asking 360 USD or near offer + shipping.

Also for sale here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/156634971037

If you want, you can propose a different price and form of sale. Self-pickup in Poland, Gdańsk is possible as well :)

I'm also attaching proof of ownership:

Below I'm pasting the description I gave on Ebay:

Vortex ATonce - hardware PC/AT 286 emulator designed for Amiga 500. Rare hardware from the era. It allows you to run DOS and all DOS programs, including Windows 3.11, Excel, AutoCad, etc. directly on the Amiga.

It is currently installed in my Amiga 500+. The emulator starts, as you can see in the photo - it tests the memory and reports the readiness of the PC system, then asks for an MS DOS diskette. I have added a video of the startup on YouTube - you can find it here:

The device asks for an original MS DOS system diskette in 720kb format. I was unable to obtain or create one, so I have tested the hardware up to this point.

On the Internet, you can find the original software for this emulator in various versions and user manuals in English and German.

In my Amiga it is mounted in such a way that the pins from the socket are soldered to the Motorola processor from the Amiga, so when selling I will not unsolder it, but will send it together with the Motorola MC68000 processor from the A500+.

Please buy carefully, because due to the age and nature of this vintage equipment I do not accept returns. If you are close to Poland, I encourage you to test this device in person.

If you are from outside Poland and need international shipping, contact me and we will find the cheapest option, because on Ebay I have to give a price for such a shipment in advance, and it is very difficult to estimate it without knowing which country it will be to, so to protect myself I have given courier prices, which seem to be very high for such a small package.

Hello and welcome to AmiBay!

According to the rules of the site you must always state a selling price for your item(s).
 
@kacperek if you are selling for 360 USD (1,500 PL) or near offer, you must state this here on your sale.

Any offers must then be discussed in PM if and when a member declares interest.
 
Sorry for not writing the price clearly. It was included in the content. I thought that proof of ownership was the most important. I will know for the future. As for the other things, I do not know how much to value them yet, so I am only mentioning it because maybe someone would be interested and would like to buy more things in one shipment. Best regards.

Price discussions are not permitted in the open forum so unfortunately no one can tell you what your items are worth. I would advise you check the sales archive, the other bay (ebay) or other forums to get a basic idea how much your items are worth.

You can then set a fixed price or a price with near offers. You would be under no obligation to accept the offers unless agreed otherwise so any price you accept would be at your discretion. Good luck with your sales. (y)
