Now if only everyone would respond to their invoices :(

Update I have tried to invoice those who have confirmed shipping with me through paypal. Not everyone's main email is their paypal (like mine, as some of you discovered!) So! please PM me or email me at ddp at theiliads dot com then i would be very grateful. ALso, to those in this thread you were in cue, i have 17 chips not spoken for, so they're up for grabs. First come first serve.

Sorry, it's hard keeping track of the world. I have created an XL spreadhseet now with everyone's names and orders and addresses and shipping costs to better keep track. ANd i learned how to invoice with paypal! hurray!

i need your address in advance so i can go to the post office and calculate the shipping though.

To everyone who asked for sids but there were non left, Stryd_one has cancelled his reservation, so i now have 17 sids available. First come first serve, PM me

I have 2 sids available at this point.

Hello? I have not heard back from many people. Please get back to me. I have many people who are eagre for sids.

THey have been rated 5 on the aldite-metrion scale for transgravitational operation. Why? Do you plan on using them in a polygrav sphere?

Oh i forgot. The best way to pay me, IMHO, is to "send money" using paypal. It's fast, delicious, and nobody steals any money from me for doing business (grrrr) Here is a *Disclaimer* I have personally tested these chips, and guarantee that they will not be DOA. DOAs can be returned within 30 days for a refund of the chip that is broken. IF you order 12 chips and one is broken, you'll get 25 dolalrs back. fair? fair. That said i am *NOT* responsible for damage in the mail (shipping insurance using mail is very very inexpensive, and I reccomend it. It's free up until 100 dollars i believe, so if you buy 16 sids (cough cough) ... insurance) I am *NOT* responsible for your own mistakes. You put a sid 8580 in a 6581 motherboard and it doesnt work, please don't tell me i lied to you and ripped you off. If you spill coffee on it, again, i can't be held responsible for that. So please, when you receive these, unwrap the static free wrapping, take them out of the static free tubing, and rather than smash it with a hammer, place it in your midibox project! (do not feed to your dog, or mistake the sid chip for a cigar, bite the end off, and then try to light it on fire and inhale the fumes. It's just toxic man, don't do it! Do not add mass to the chip until it collapses in on itself reaching 6000 degrees Kelvin and begins the hydrogen fusion reaction characterstic of proto-stellar masses. I don't know how you would accomplish it, but for god's sake, a sun in the middle of the earth would kill us all. be considerate, do not create a new sun!) Do not assume that you sid is capable of time travel, pack all your bags and your gun, scream "austria, 1913! HITLER HOUSEHOLD" and start counting the ways you'll prevent WW2, ONLY to discover it's a 3 channel analogue sound chip, and it's time travel capabilities are, AT BEST< capable of 3 years into the past.. MAX. Do not store the sid inside lava. I think that about does it for the disclaimer. I reccomend that you test the sid in a c64 when you receive it. STRONGLY reccomend! Don't find out in 7 months when you get around to putting together your midibox that the sid you bought never worked in the first place :( I will be sad, and you will be sad. I will let you return the sid to me for a refund of the sid expense for 30 days from receipt. But if you contact me t 6 months down the line saying "yo, gimme back my 25 bucks, holmes, you gypped me, yo! yo yo ! i got a gloch! snap snap boi! "... well... sorry mainly because i get annoyed with that weird rap talk, and also because after months, i have no way of knowing if the thing was working when you got it or not. so again, for your safety, and for mine, TEST this chip when you get it. I want you to have working chips, you want to have working chips, and we want to all stay friends. That said, if the chip arrives in good condition, clearly not damaged in shipping, and you excercise all due care in handling the thing, then i will refund the cost of the sid to you if you return the sid to me. There, i believe that exhaustive disclaimer was fun for all involved.

Do you guys want the good news or the bad news? The bad news is all my sids were lost in a 4 alarm fire in the hotel that i own. the good news is that is obviously a lie. all 30 of the sids work, great filtering. I have now socketed them and desocketed them once, so the "never used" aspect is no longer accuraet. however, CAREFULLY TESTED is the best way to describe it. i have half of you in an email box, the other half on here. I ... THINK i have everyone's email who has reserved sids. so, if you have NOT received an email by me in the next 30 minutes, (12:17 am EST) then get in touch with me right away! the price per sid will be 25$ USD shipping will be the actual cost of shipping. handling will be the cost of materials (anti static envelope/bubbles/tubing) (so not much) happy shopping. If you don't want all that you reserved, tell me asap and i'll post the news on here for everyone else.

I will test the remaining 15 tonight. Once that is done and i am satisfied, i will contact all the people who have reserved sids for their address information and investigate shipping costs using mail and courrier (i'm sure courrier will be more expensive but safer). And quote you a final price with everything included. However many sids are left unclaimed after that, i will post on here, and anyone who wanted sids but thought they were too late can reserve those. thanks for the interest. I will be able to pay my rent this month!

they are reportedly unused, i have only seem photos and there is no indication that they have been pulled form boards. From memmory i will say they were R4s as far as i know, there's no real difference in sound between any 6581 or 6582 revisions though. but who am i? merely a man

Good news! Tomorrow is my show, so after that, i am testing the last 15. I have a source of possibly 20 more if you don't get one, and i want to judge the interest in 6581s. I have been able to find 36 of them, but i don't know if it's worth importing them, as in, will i be able to sell them or not, because shipping and duty and stuff is frustrating to pay for no compensation anyone want the 6581?

HI all. No, i'm not dead, but i did get very sick this weekend and rather than test Sids, i tested my regurgitation reflex, copiously! GOOD NEWS! My body expels fluids from all orifaces simultaneously with a high degree of efficiency! I am fully functional in that regard! Now, back to sids. Okay.. no one has to change their order, the 5 sid guy, correct me if i'm wrong (and i could well be) but i think you emailed me and i said "there's currently 1 sid remaining, but possibly more if stryd doesn't buy them. Regardless, that 1 sid will go down as yours" If that wasn't you, then it was someone other multi-sid seeking cowpolk who recently emailed me. The requests keep coming in, i understand why, try to be patient. I'll test the other 15 this week. I have a concert tomrrow for one of my bands, PDF Format, and on thursday i'm hosting a comedy show, after which i will be free to test all the sids and quote all the prices and investigate all the shipping costs and kiss all the girls!

I think i got everyone's requests here, but if i missed you, please mention it to me. There are many international shipping rates to be calculated now, and 15 more to be tested!

Just to inform you all, i have just tested the first tube of 15, and all work. I tested them with cynthcart, with paddles to test the filtering. Everything is loud, 3 channels, and good cutoff filtering. I will test the next 15 over the next couple of days. all 15 of those first 15 are spoken for, as are about 8 of the next 15.

Okay, i can't watch this board a lot while at work, so it's best to, if you want sids to email me at the address posted above. I have so far 18 or 19 held for people, but by emailing me, i will get your request and store it in a special folder and look at it every day and weep

Okay, please email me at my business email, ddp@godhatesjesus.com, and i will test the number you want, as well as check with fedex (i can ship with fedex and earn bonus miles!)

IU have not been keeping up.. the v2... she is nearing the completion? Can you use the old sid modules and core modules with it? is it merely a software change? I am eager!

I have anti static IC tubes that fit 15 of the chips, and i would use UPS express with extra instructions. I'll double check any other safety features and get back to you. Out of curiosity, why do you need 16? are you building 4 midibox sids with four sids apiece? I will test anything i sell to you, and insurance will be included with the shipping cost. man i'm tired... okay.. sleep now

Hello! I have 30 new old stock Sid 8580s, never used, not pulls from boards. I have tested a bunch, so far they all work. I will test any i sell before hand. Anyone need sid 8580s?

I have 30 new old stock 8580 R5s.. I just bought these and have been testing them, so far they all work. Anyone who wants these from me, i will test anything i sell first. Anyone interested? drop me a line.

That sounds like a good plan. The reason i cooked up this harebrained scheme was because i found this beautiful backlit LCD , just gorgeous.

What does that mean precisely.

Is there some way to use a 4x20 rather than a 2x40? so the top 2x20 is like the first 2x20 on the 2x40, and the bottom 2x20 is like the 2nd half of the 2x40?
