sammichSID Final Batch!
No, seriously, I mean it this time!

Yes, I know I said this a year ago when I'd sold 350 kits, but I kept getting orders and kept making kits, because I hate saying no to people. Now the total is 500 550 kits sold, and I have got to the end of the waiting list, and I really, really must stop sometime and do something else!

There will be a final batch of 50 kits in January 2012 (or when I get 50 orders).

There are still plenty of kits available in the final batch, and any extra pre-orders I receive will go on the waiting list, just in case I change my mind and do another one-off batch next year.

Like last time, I fully agree this is some shameless self-promotion to boost sales so I can finish with my routine 50 kit batch and sell off all the PCBs and parts I have in stock.

If you're interested in getting a sammichSID, or want to find out WTF this thing is, all the information is here: http://www.midibox.o...wiki/sammichsid

Regards,
Wilba

Any news on this, Wilba?
I E-Mailed you a few weeks ago and hadn't heard anything.
Would love to snag one from you.

Excellent! Can't wait!

I understand the need for a break. You deserve it!

Well, I guess another run can be warranted given that the miniaturized SwinSID is available now.

ah this is good news :sorcerer:

I've been occupying myself by repairing dead C64s and have a nice stock of SIDs for this project and a future mb-6582.

consider my pre-order interest still current and I look forward to paying you some monnies :flowers:

I pre-ordered a while ago but I've not heard from Wilba, does this mean I missed out on getting one?
I really want to build this kit.

He sent out order confirmations on the 16th January and invoiced me on Jan 31st.

I'm all paid up and waiting with a pair of 8580R5s and a pair of 6581s to play with.

I got a confirmation email January 5, but have not heard anything since.
I'd love to be part of the batch, hope I'm not missing out :-)

I've been very busy lately and I have not replied to recent emails, sorry.

Batch #23/#24 will be posted this week.

Batch #25/#26 (potentially the absolute final batch ever) has 30 confirmed orders, and 20 empty places. It will be arranged soon.

If you've emailed a pre-order recently, I'll reply ASAP.

Sorry for the long delay.

I've put a sale request in on the appropriate thread for anyone looking to get an un-built kit from batch #21/#22 and 2x 8580R5's quick and potentially cheaper (not to under-cut you Wilba! I've recently been made redundant @ work & neither have the time to put into building it).

>>Sale Request Here<<
