nebula Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 A while back I did a bulk order for Optrex 40x2 LCDs for a steal of a price. I bought more than we needed, I paid for transportation/currency exchange/wire transfers, and as a result I actually lost a a small bit of money in the process. I've since been selling them on eBay and privately to MIDIboxers, at a slight profit. Now I'm a few bucks ahead, and I still have about a dozen or so left to sell off. I was easily selling them for 10 bucks a crack on eBay, but when approached by MIDIbox crew I would always give offer a better deal:1 Display: $ 82-3 Displays: $7 each.4-5 Displays: $6 each.More: $5 each.U.S. shipping is $4.80 or $6.20 depending on where you live. Canadian shipping is 5 bucks, eh? Anywhere else is $11.I can do PayPal or I will accept a cheque/money order.LINK: drawing with pinoutLINK: datasheet Quote
Goblinz Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Hi, I'm maybe interested in 2 or three of these, shipping to the UK. Is the $11 postage just for one display, or can you send multiple displays for the same postage rate?? G Quote
nebula Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Posted February 21, 2008 I can send at least 6 in an $11 mailer. More if I get creative. Quote

Goblinz Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 I can send at least 6 in an $11 mailer. More if I get creative. I'll take 4 of them then please, postage to the UK. Will PM details later when I manage to get back in to my paypal! G Quote
Wilba Posted February 23, 2008 Report Posted February 23, 2008 Sorry for the hijack Neb... ;) I overstocked on the LCDs you sold me... so any Aussies wanting a couple can PM me. Quote
nebula Posted February 25, 2008 Author Report Posted February 25, 2008 No worries mate ... I just want to see them find good homes.Maybe if somebody's buying SID or OPL3 chips or Vegemite or whatever from you, they would be better off to get you to throw an LCD in at the same time! Quote

nebula Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Posted February 28, 2008 Thanks everyone who messaged me. Invoices have now been sent, and that about takes care of it. I don't know the exact number I have left, but I don't think they're for sale. Wilba may still have a few. Quote
