lucidPerspective over at benheck found a Chinese dealer who will sell 300 for a small amount each plus postage, hes trying to get enough interest for a group buy
so get over there if your interested, or you could post your orders here and I can put them up for youlucidPerspective said:I've talked to some suppliers in China and I can get 300 NINTENDO 4mb RDRAM36-NUS chips at $1.65USD a piece + $30USD postage.
In case people read this without knowing why anyone would want these chips.. you can use them to replace the 2mb memory chips on the pre-2000 N64 boards. This act's as a built in expansion pack. So if you swap the chips for 4mb ones, and then cut up your jumper pack and wire the components straight to the pins of the jumper slot you can have an expansion pak board without it being any higher than the original N64 board + the jumper pack is flush with the board too = super tiny N64p
I'm just wanting to get a rough idea how much interest there is around here and if it would be worth getting these chips. There will be a slight markup to make it worth the investment, but nothing too extreme.
Anyway, post in this thread with your interest (if there is any)
Cheapest price I've found without quantity minimum's is $2.50USD + huge amounts of postage ..so my prices will be:
1 - 10: $2.20USD/each + postage
11 - 50: $2.00USD/each + postage
Postage will be $7.50USD to anywhere in the world (to be confirmed.. but definitely less than $10USD)
Sound fair? if you don't think so, let me know what you think would be a fair price and we'll see
