I has it:

It's probably going to cost at least as much again to ship it from there to here but it means the project is well and truly under way 😀

Good deal!
I would have thought they would have listed shipping costs. At least there's a place for it on the US site.

There's a space for it on ebay.au as well. Some people use it, some don't. Some list shipping costs in the body of the auction, some don't. I usually ask for a total whenever I buy something, if only to buy me a little time to get the funds together 😛

51 AUD, how much is that in real money? 😛

Hi LSD - well done on the Gigabit/DA !
I snagged a G4 350 and G4 400 from him for AU$21 each !!!
Also got two G3 400 Imacs that I should be able to combine into one working machine for AU$31 total.
His brief listings put people off I think.
Regards,
Macdownunder

Hey good score. I've got one too I'm building up as soon as my new CPU arrives from the US. Let's compare notes.

I think you'll have an easier time with yours than I'll have with mine. You have a genuine DA CPU module which will just be a drop-in replacement whereas I have a QS one which requires splicing in 12V (and quite possibly modification of the HS).

My 1GHz ti will still spank the lot of ya!
Seriously though I would love to have a quicksilver. I just don't like the look of MDD's. I wonder I could transplant the guts of an MDD into a QS case.

Too broke to actually buy anything. If I wasn't facing foreclosure ATM though...

I got the shipping quote this morning: AUD$67. It's costing me AUD$16 more to ship it over than I paid for it 😛

I knew it was going to cost an arm and a leg to get it over here to begin with. However, even at AUD$118 total, that's still cheaper than trying to buy it locally.

$au = ~ $0.80 us

w00t!
Got an email from the seller this morning telling me that it's been posted. With any luck it'll be here by the end of the week! 😀

Still they make a great Tiger box though...
