Wilba Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 *** THIS MEGASALE IS CLOSED ***MEGA-SALE #8 will happen in late January. There is no waiting list. Email your order directly to me.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, but you already knew that.THE DEAL6582 SIDs now cost AU$30 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.Postage will be calculated as the actual cost to post, plus packaging. The PayPal invoice will include the handling fee in the postage amount. Most of the time, postage will be AU$6.15 for an airmail letter. If you are ordering more than 8 SIDs, I might choose to upgrade the postage to an insured parcel, where available.All SIDs I sell are tested before packing to ensure the oscillators and filter work. These chips are new-old-stock, not pulls from Commodore 64, and are unused when sold, with absolutely no long term guarantee. However, considering these chips have been safely tucked away in antstatic tubes for 15 years, they are less likely to fail than one you find in Commodore 64 that has been power cycled thousands of times and been alternately cooked and frozen in a garage etc. From my experience, after testing over two thousand 6582 SIDs, only 3 were found dead. After salvaging about eight 6581s, all were found to have dead filters or dead oscillators.If you find any chips faulty through initial testing with hardware that is known to work, I might allow you to return them and get a refund or replacement if possible.HOW TO ORDERJust follow the link: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/wilba_6582a_sid_mega_saleNO CASH? WANT TO GET SOME LATER?Just email me with a "pre-order" for a future MEGASALE, so I can email you later. I call it a "pre-order" but it's really just me notifying you that I will have more to sell soon and letting you make a real order then. You can cancel at any time.

stryd_one Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Dude, that's what's *right* with him!Also, he's Mr Nice Guy. The actual one, not the hypothetical guy of urban colloquialism.Sadly, he's gone completely crazy. I think it's looking at all those SIDs all day that did it.

spacezombie Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 WilbaFirst off, I am patient :) I emailed you Jan 9th to order 8 6282's, based on your webpage you mention immediate reply if you made it in Mega-Sale #8 so I am assuming I missed it. I would like to confirm I can be put on a list for a future sale, etc etc.Thank youChris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nILS Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Well, let's just say - Wilba is a human being, too (I think). With wife and kids. And a real life. So if he takes a weekend off every now and then and does not reply *immediately* (a week later is still immediate enough), I think it's okay to wait for a couple of days, innit? Good. Maybe he's even busy testing and packing 442 SIDs ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
