Wilba Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 **CLOSED**This is #6 because:6582 SID MEGA-SALE #1: 200 SIDs6582 SID MEGA-SALE #2: 312 SIDs6582 SID MEGA-SALE #3: 512 SIDs6582 SID MEGA-SALE #4: 312 SIDs6582 SID MEGA-SALE #5: 546 SIDsIf you are already on the waiting list here:http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/wilba_6582a_sid_mega_saleyou're lucky, because THE WAITING LIST IS NOW CLOSED FOR NEW ENTRIES!If you wish to change your order (you want more or less SIDs), please update your entry and the total now.THE GOODS6582 (6582A) SIDs are just like 8580 SIDs and not like 6581 SIDs. They have the filter that works best for the MB-SID V2 Bassline mode, low noise, less bugs. Look elsewhere for whether 6582/8580 is better/worse than 6581.I use eight of them in my MB-6582 MB-SID V2 Synth:http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/wilba_mb_6582(but you already knew that)THE DEAL6582 SIDs cost AU$25 each plus postage and handling fees.I add up the exact cost of SIDs and postage in Australian dollars, and then multiply by 1.0351966873706 to add the handling fee.This means 6582 SIDs cost approximately AU$25.88 or US$24.78 or 15.74 EUR when including handling fees.Postage will be calculated as the actual cost to post, plus packaging. The PayPal invoice will include the handling fee in the postage amount.Do not email orders to me yet!This is only an announcement that I will be ordering more.I will probably make the order in about one week from today, around 4th July 2008, and then contact people on the waiting list to send their orders, details, etc. via email.If you are already on the waiting list, you don't need to do anything except wait, unless you want to change how many SIDs you want.If you were too late to add your name to the waiting list, you are welcome to complain loudly in this thread, the most amusing post might earn the poster a wildcard entry onto the list.

goldbug Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I've only just found out about your MB6582, but man would I love to build one!! Here's hoping that being the first one to complain on this thread will be enough to get me entry in to mega-sale #6 :) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted July 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 There is almost always someone who is on the waiting list and doesn't go through with an order.People can add their names to the list of people who will buy any spare SIDs.http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/wilba_6582a_sid_mega_sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilba Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Don't worry, there will be plenty of spares, quite a few people on the waiting list are not going through with orders.As of right now, there's 52 spare, not counting people who haven't sent through orders or cancellations.

Wilba Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 To people ordering SIDs, I'll get those PayPal invoices out soon.Due to overwhelming cancellations and no-replies-to-PMs, this left 160 SIDs available, and so everyone on the "spares list" is upgraded to a full invite to join the MEGASALE and has been sent a PM.Even if all those spares orders go through, there are still 82 SIDs left.If you read this and want some SIDs, they cost AU$25 plus shipping anywhere (AU$5 for 2-8, AU$7 for 9-16) plus PayPal transaction fees (~3.5%).Email your order to: Jason.S.Williams@gmail.comThe contents of the email should be (without labels!):MIDIbox usernameReal namePostal AddressCOUNTRYContact Email Address (same one you are using to email me)PayPal Email Address (the email address you use to login to PayPal)Quantity of 6582A SIDsFirst come, first served!

stryd_one Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 First come, first served!.... Call now!Thought I'd select a more appropriate colour. See, when you're awake this late, the phone sex ads on TV get to you man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted August 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 The first batch of SIDs were sent today to people who have already paid (not counting uncleared eCheques).I'm down to 25 unsold SIDs, which I will keep reserved.You can continue to send through orders using the format in the previous post, and if I have SIDs available, I'll contact you.
