I asked the owner a question about his product and he blocked me from buying it, I emailed him to ask if he had blocked me, he asked for my username and other accounts, I only have one user name and account. I genuinely wasn't going to leave a review but I feel I should warn any potential customer that you might be accused of something just for asking a question. Obviously the owner has some issues and I find it totally disgraceful that even after telling him I'm disabled he sent a sarcastic email saying yes I blocked you. I have never been treated in such a disgusting way in all my life. I thought I better warn any potential customers as I would hate to imagine if you had an issue with a product. To basically accuse someone of having more than one account and blocking is totally unacceptable. This company is run by paranoid Phil. I just hope he never ends up disabled and gets treated so bad. Disgusting on every level possible.

I will be going to CA now, you say I blocked months ago ? How come you replied to me about a motherboard a few days before ? I have all the messages. I have never messaged you before the motherboard and I only asked about some ribbons so I could order more. You are one lying man

Fantastic job done. An orange, no longer loading, wreck of an Amiga 1200, restored to a beige, fully working model. With the hard drive recovered and replaced. The nostalgia runs strong in this one.

Phil was incredibly friendly and enthusiastic about amigas, and really helpful about assessing and restoring my old one. Excellent communication throughout, and a brilliant job done on an old machine. Can't speak highly enough about them!

Excellent work on my A600 , recap + checking the traces of an IC, board cleaned as well.

Sent them my Amiga 600 board and CD32 for repair, recapping and cleaning.
They did a very professional job, boards look like new now and work perfectly.
I was kept very well informed throughout and found them friendly and knowledgable, with very reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

I have an A500 ram expansion that kept failing when set to >4MB. I sent it to pure Amiga to see if they could fix it. They couldn't source the schematics but instead sourced a mint condition identical model that works flawlessly. Bravo lads.

I recently went in search of a full set of keys for my Amiga 600 which were lost when I had stripped it down some years back with the intention of painting the outer casing.

Having found Pure Amiga by chance when I posted an ad for help (it’s actually more like they came to my aid) a full set was swiftly put together and sent out to me with the key supports that I had also lost. Not only this but they included a set of springs for the keys which I had forgotten even existed and without which wouldn’t have been able to put the keyboard back together!

Amazing, swift and friendly service! I couldn’t recommend this company enough. I’ll definitely be ordering more bits soon..

Thanks a million!!

Pure Amiga got my CDTV up and running again. I'll definitely be using them again as they provided a top notch service at a reasonable price👍

Can't recommend Pure Amiga enough! Sent my Amiga 600 in for a recapping, was kept up to date throughout, and was returned in tip top condition working better than ever. I also purchased a hard membrane replacement for my faulty keyboard, and when I had a problem with it, they helped me figure out what was causing it (my fault entirely!), and now the keyboard is working brilliantly. Their work is second to none, they absolutely know their stuff and have all the tools and testing equipment to do a proper job on our old machines. Would not hesitate to use again (and I'm sure I will)!

Pure Amiga saved my A500 Plus from the curse of clock battery leakage! I recently dug out my Amiga from the loft to show my kids some of the great games I played when I was their age. I read a few threads online about this notorious problem and asked Pure Amiga to check my machine. Sure enough, it was a mess, with corrosion damaging tracks on the motherboard and about to spread to the memory expansion port. The Pure Amiga team removed the old battery, cleaned up the board, patched the damaged tracks and resolved a sound issue. The machine now works beautifully. I’ve since bought an ACA500plus for the Amiga to make classics like Frontier and F1GP run like they always should have. A big thanks to the Pure Amiga team for bringing my machine back from the brink!

As an avid Commodore Amiga enthusiast, a hoarder, hobbyist and private trader for pocket money! I can highly and undoubtedly recommend Pure Amiga. Their skill set is second to none. I love the Amiga 600 having been my first experience of a Commodore platform. During lockdown, I purchased over 20 Amiga 600s, a few 1200s and various Spectrums and other machines. Trusting these units to Pure Amiga, they recapped the Amiga units at a very competitive rate, including hydro washing the motherboards. They even spotted units that had already been recapped and performed full tests on those devices and advised they didn't require any current action (saving me £s) on labour. Where machines had additional faults (some I wasn't aware of), Pure Amiga (due to there test processes) identified these issues, informed me and conducted repairs accordingly. This ranged from no display, faulty drives, sound issues and loose ports and sockets. A friendly, honest and helpful team.

Hey, I found Pure Amiga when looking to purchase An amiga 1200 and live the dream ,with the computer I always wanted, but never got!(until now!)

suffice to say that dealing with Pure Amiga has been a pleasure, They are First class! My new amiga 1200 is spotless inside and out, it's been recapped and It even came with some original packaging, and an original 'tank' mouse! I couldn't have been happier opening it up, it was like christmasI'm not sure they could do that for everyone, but they did for me, and I'm still very happy for it.
The after care for any of my questions has been great, and a door has opened for me to a thriving Amiga community that has grown up around them too.
all in all, I feel privileged to have dealt with Pure Amiga; I cannot fault them at all - so I won't,
All the best! (literally)
