    Hi all,

    We recently ran the Kick Off 2 World Cup in Dublin (more info http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057424758 and kickoff2worldcup.com ) and we had to buy a few Amigas to get the competition going. I still have a couple of them left:

    Amiga #1)

    Bought from a well known retro gaming store, so it's possibly the most professionally tested before it got to our hands.

    + Includes external drive, for your KO2 data disks
    + Includes lots of original documentation
    + Includes workbench, original tank mouse
    + Good clean keyboard

    = A520 and RF cable untested

    - Box could be in better condition

    Extra: This A500 originally included 512kb memory expansion with some battery leakage. I cut the battery and cleaned the expansion with some isopropyl alcohol, with no luck. I'm including it as a freebie, perhaps the buyer is more savvy on these matters and can get it to work.

    Amiga #2)

    I suspect this Amiga was once for display on a store window: it doesn't seem to show much usage, but it is considerably yellowed.
    Even the old style battery in the included 512k expansion looks brand new.

    + No big marks of usage
    + Good packaging
    + Includes 512k expansion to 1Mb
    + Includes original tank mouse & award badge

    = A520 & cables not tested

    - Quite yellowed

    On each Amiga, as a freebie, I'm including:

    a) 2 joystick cable extenders so the 9pin plugs don't get damaged from all the connecting/disconnecting.
    b) 1 extension (4 sockets, 2m)
    c) The knowledge that the new Kick Off 2 World Champion Andy Gregoris and the dethroned champion Gianni Torchio played on these Amigas :)
