Sorry, guys.  An offer was dropped on me that I couldn't pass on.  Right from the start I wanted to offload the parts, I just didn't plan on doing it all at once.

I'll make it up with more focus on my reproduction parts (which I should be doing anyway).

wow what a tease, dangle all this stuff in front of us and then, oh it all got sold.  :-\

To be fair, I suspect that if you had contacted him directly, you would have received the same indication that I did that a bulk buy was in progress.

And, as it occurs to me, I never did follow-up (unrelated item) after that as I intended to, which kinda makes the point anyway.
Working: Not Enough
Projects: Too Many
Progress: None

The entire lot was sold last month.  The buyer asked not to be identified, but I can tell you that he's a regular.

And then I read this on www.videogameparts.com:

Coming soon: Over 4500 new NOS parts coming in August 2009. We still have over 25,000 NOS parts in storage to list. Look for new additions each week!


Mmmmmmmmm

Great..... that place is the biggest rip off ever  :angry: 

I feel better if the parts were burned and then dumped out to sea......

I was not me. I just bought out all of Betson's obsolete stock, or what they consider obsolete. The blurb on my site is about the Betson parts.
