what you say? an XT IDE on trademe you say?

It's for the A500, but inside is a 20Mb XT-IDE.
I know at least one of you has been hunting for something XT IDEish that wasn't a CF card.

Yeah I have been - for an A590 nonetheless!

I actually need a couple, one for the A590 (or a SCSI drive - it has dual controllers inside there) and one for my PC10-III. Not sure I'd hack up a working A590 mind you, would probably just use that unit as it sits and sell the other one.

Yeah good on you.
Had a quick look on ebay, those drives are $160USD+ D:

Good god, really?! Makes 80NZD seem like a bargain...
