Actually my Dad has a pickup. A nice L200. :)

I think the seller of that auction might be very optimistic hoping it will go for £1000. I can't image it going for anything like that.

Hello all,

I don't know, I see a crapload of PC games between it all, plus I myself can't find any of the real interesting Amiga classics amongst this like for example the Lucasarts games.

I get more the impression that this guy's collection is somewhat after the 'golden' era of Amiga, yes he does have some games still considered classic by many but not much.

That is true, and there are a lot of duplicates. But I imagine there should be quite a few good ones among them. The condition of most of them look OK though.

That's a lot of games for sure, but really would anyone other than a reseller really be genuinely interested?

Nice collection, but there are only a couple of games that I would be truly interested in... ie Midwinter and er... Midwinter

I have to agree with you on that, most of that stuff will probably appear on EBay again.

I have been looking through the pictures but I can't find any of the games that would make me interested like adventures, RPGs, classic shooters etc.
He is offering a lot of the later games of the Amiga and to be honest not all of those were very good, especially when the Amiga tried to compete with PC FPS shooters.
