Re: LOLPRICE
After viewing the eBay link for the Jaguar device, had to ask my son what he paid maybe 3 months ago. $259.00, including tax and shipping. US based.
Re: LOLPRICE
My son says they are scalping.

I paid the full UK RRP for mine (£179?). RetroHQ and I shared a house for a year when we worked for Argonaut. No mates-rates here

Just WHY do people want silly money for faulty motherboards and WHO would be crazy enough to buy the things ?!
I've seen it a lot this past week while looking for a particular motherboard. It's not like you can really reuse anything off the things other than the battery and heatsinks which are not worth anything and not like they gonna go wrong anyway.

Re: LOLPRICE
That looks so dodgy
Could be a joke or mistake but it reeks of money laundering or something.

Re: LOLPRICE
Bit excessive, mine, albeit with fewer accessories, was £400. I have heard these are hard to come by in the US, so the price may reflect that, but it seems to me it's more like TT money.Rustynutt wrote: Fri Aug 11, 2023 9:04 pm Hopefully don't offend a member here
