Two concentric circles of 16 steps, beautiful!

Yeah I'm thinking that one would make a good ultra clock with DIN sync delay correction, and the other would make a good basic drum seq.  Geez I'm pissed.  You should come to one of the parties at our joint some time strydster.

Some wanker is selling chips that are obviously not SIDs as SIDs  >:(

Here are some 74LS logic chips:

And assorted C64 support chips:

I've reported the guy and there are about 22 hours to go on these auctions.

He says he knows nothing about the chips.  Instead of reporting him to ebay, why not write to him and tell him he's got the description of the chips wrong?  Most times I've found sellers are grateful for the information and will either include it in their listing or take down and relist.

I can beat that with some dude trying to phish 2000 UKPounds out of me last week  :o

Funny that eBay say they support the law enforcement agencies... They'll report an attempt to steal 2K pounds to the feds, but when someone actually succeeds in taking 800USD from me, that's not worth a mention ??? I don't know whether to blame eBay or the cops, but either way: Grrrrr. Be careful people.

(Oh FWIW I knew this guy was phishing from the get-go, but I thought I'd gather some evidence for the feds bwahahaha)

That store (TMG) is really cool... Unfortunately I stuffed up collection of an item and kinda cheesed him off :( D'oh!!

I made my pickup on Monday.  Some of my items were from last week and some of them were a couple of months old.  I got taken "backstage" into the main warehouse to see some other stuff he wanted to sell me (Vero subrack frames and accessories).

Oh.  My.  God.  Like, thirty foot high pallet racking filling a fifty by two hundred foot warehouse, jam packed with vintage lab and telco equipment.  Bakelite knobs as far as the eye can see.  They are the main surplus joint for Telstra.

tmgtel and the-macservice-group are the same seller, with different but similar items.

The Vero gear is gorgeous.  Open framed 2U and 3U rack cases with brushed aluminum ears and plastick sub-rack slots for PCBs.  The 3U one looks perfect for my Simmons SDSV voice cards. :D  He wanted $150 for another four big packing boxes of the stuff - fair enough but I couldn't go another $150 on the day.
