Dev,
I found an A1200 on Ebay for the land down under here :) It's got a faulty internal drive but comes with a working external one. So far it's at $100AUS. Personally I'd look for one in fully working order.
Found a few more on the UK site but delivering worldwide could be an issue. The German site has many too.

Try these links too:

amigakit.com
More Links

Failing that, if your serious about the Amiga it could be a fun project to build your own using the above links to buy the hardware and a case.
Or you could just go with PC emulation using WinUAE. This is a great emulator which supports all the Amiga CPU's, kick-start Roms, graphics accelerators, cdrom, hard drive emulation and more.

I still have my trusty 1200 but I'm sorry to say I couldn't part with it, even though I use the PC emulation option.

I'll post anymore sources I find and I'm sure a few union members will dig up a few sources too.

Good luck :)

Thanks for the link on ebay, must of missed this one, but as you say the internal's buggered and my last a1200 did that as well. Putting on together would be great but it's all going to come from the UK but I might be able to pick one up when I travel there next year. For now I'lll just have to keep using winuae. Again thanks for the info.

This could do with it's own thread to be honest rather than hijacking this one; out of courtesy and that a bigger audience are likely to read and respond. Am starting a thread up for you.

I would have loved to have the A1200, or even better yet, the CD-32!

the cd32 died a sudden death, there wasn't much support around for the CDs so there was only a few games released for it. the a1200 with the hard-drive soon put pay to that because of the expandability.

I bet there are a ton of them lying around local peoples attics.

I suggest you break into random houses and search their attic boxes.
