[Fwd: Re: [SynthModules] TI SN76477N Chips (New Old Stock) - Limited Quantities Availble For Sale!]

Since this was sent to the list, I thought I would respond on the 
list.  Here are some recent eBay sales:

$29.50 each (Qty. 5) plus shipping
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?
ViewItem&category=38071&item=3728913894

$32.29 each (Qty. 2) plus shipping
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?
ViewItem&category=38071&item=3730451987

I believe my price of $24.99 each is very reasonable.  When I bought 
these, they came from a surplus electronics supplier in Australia.  I 
had to pay by International Wire Transfer ($30 bank fee) plus paid 
for certified Air mail.  My cost on these was over $30 each.  I'm not 
looking to make any $ on these folks. I just thought some of you 
might like to get a couple at a reasonable price (not eBay) and I 
just have them sitting around here.

Thanks,
Brice

Hi all!

I did not mean any disparagement on the fairness of the price. And it is 
certainly fine at the qty 5 price. This is a personal decision only. I 
wish I could spare the change right now. And my apologies for not 
keeping it off list.

Regards, Scott E.
