   Ask yourself the same question about the A2000.  Why are they selling for so
   low?  2200$ for a 2500/30 with 50 meg drive and a bunch of other
   extras is quite low.  Why do Amiga's lose so much value when you go to sell
   them?  As the old saying goes, "supply and demand".

Yeah, the A2000 is now very old technology, and all technology falls
in value as time goes by. With an A3000/25-50 going for $2500 (new),
an A2500/30 w/50 meg drive isn't going to get much more than $2000,
unless that "bunch of other extras" includes a lot of expensive
things.
