Unlike our Commodore 64 repair service, we're unable to offer a fixed price Amiga repair service. After the diagnosis, Derek will discuss options and give you an honest opinion and estimated costs.
Here's what we can help with...
- Investigate the Issues with your Amiga
- Repair to a battery leak
- Replacements of all components including surface mount ICs
- Port replacements such as broken mouse port
- Repair of damaged pins such as hard drive, pcmcia or floppy connectors.
- Socket replacements like a damaged Agnus or CPU socket
- PCB repair to damaged tracks
We'll never commence any additional work without an agreement of how much it will cost.
About Our Service
Depending on the issues you're having, Derek may only need your motherboard to fully diagnose the issue/s. He'll let you know what needs doing and the costs involved.
We're happy to accept whole machines if you don't have the confidence to open it up and remove the motherboard, however there is an additional cost of £15, payable once all the work is complete
This service does not include a full recap of your motherboard.
This is what Derek will do within any initial estimate:
- Diagnose any issues with your Amiga
- Repair to Dry Joints
- Essential Capacitor Replacement
- Fix Colour Issues
- Other Minor Fixes
This may well be enough to get your Amiga back in working order!
How It Works
Ordering our repair service is easy.
1. Contact us and let us know what issues you're having.
2. We'll get back in touch with you with a price estimate for the work needed.
3. Send your machine/motherboard direct to Derek with your name/address and a copy of your receipt/order number, as well as a short description of the fault/s.
4. Derek will investigate the problems you're having and contact you in good-time with a fix or resolution and ask for payment before returning your working computer to you.
What should I send in?
If you are confident the issue/s are just with the motherboard you can send in just your motherboard, otherwise it's best to send in the whole machine. (minus the power-supply & mouse) But doing so will cost an additional £15.00
How long is all this going to take?
We endeavour to do the initial diagnostics within a few days of receipt of your machine. Then the repair may take around 10-14 days.
What if I decide not to have my Amiga repaired after the initial diagnosis?
If you choose not to have the repair work done, then we will return your motherboard/computer to you within a few days (but a handling fee of £12 will apply to cover return postage).
*UK MAINLAND SERVICE
The costs for international shipping (in both directions) is very expensive, the shipping costs alone would likely be more than the actual cost repair, and as such we offer this service to primarily UK customers. If you are overseas and would still like us to service your machine, please email us first before ordering, and we will let you shipping details, import tax liabilities and estimated costs to return your working machine.
​
Repairs and chip replacements can only be offered to PAL UK specification machines.
​
Should your actual Amiga keyboard/membrane be faulty, Derek will contact you with details of it's condition and offer options to replace for a replacement membrane if you wish.
​
Repairs for overseas customers is possible but please contact us first. you will be responsible for any import/export charges.
