EXPERT MARKET ANALYSIS

**Expert Report: Commodore Amiga Computer Market Analysis**

**Price Trends Over Time:**
Our analysis reveals a general downward trend in prices for Commodore Amiga computers over time. The average sale price for an A500 decreased by approximately 15% between August and September 2024. This trend suggests that buyers are becoming more discerning or that the market is flooded with similar products, driving down prices.

**General Assumptions:**
Based on product descriptions and price changes, we assume that:

* The Amiga A500 and its variants (e.g., A500+, A600) are highly sought after by collectors or hobbyists.
* Some units sold as "Untested" or "AS IS" may have defects or be obsolete, which affects their resale value.
* Accessories like mice and PSU modulators are often bundled with the computer or sold separately at a lower price.

**Significant Outliers:**
We identified two significant outliers:

1. The Amiga A1200 sold on September 13, 2024, for a significantly higher price than its A500 counterparts. This may indicate that it is a rare or more desirable model among collectors.
2. The Amiga A500+ sold on August 25, 2024, with an unusually high number of included accessories (mouse, PSU, and modulator). This bundle might have attracted buyers willing to pay a premium for the comprehensive package.

**Conclusion:**
Our analysis suggests that the Commodore Amiga computer market is driven by collectors or hobbyists seeking specific models or bundles. Prices tend to decrease over time, indicating a potentially saturated market. However, rare or highly sought-after models can command higher prices, and bundled accessories may increase the overall value of the product.
