The 8086 bridgeboard (from watching ebay) seems to be really common.
One pops up about once a month and usually goes for low prices.  As
you go up the scale, they get increasingly more rare.  The 286 board
appears from time to time.  But the golden gate boards with 486s
almost never show up... maybe once a year.  They're more likely to be
traded on the amiga forums.  A tested/working 486 golden gate board
with the external video breakout box, I bet, would go for around $500
on ebay now.
