UNTESTED Amiga 2000 on eBay grinds my gears

[+OLD CS1]

For $630, you would think they could hook up the monitor using the obviously present monitor cable and see if the machine comes up, FFS.

Assume it doesn't work.

General rule of thumb is that "untested" (or "unknown" in this case) is seller speak for "it doesn't work" or "I can't be bothered to check it out properly" and ultimately "I just want the cash for this piece of junk and no complications"

Good words for eBay newbs.  Still chaps my ass as it does not take much to tell people, "hey, look, the monitor does not work, but rather than throw it out, I figure someone can fix it."
