Here's what we have in this week:

6 x Crystal Xbox cases (shrink wrapped complete with Crystal drive face)
£60.00 each

22 x Crystal Xbox S pads (bagged and tagged)
£30.00 each

9 x Xbox 1.4 motherboards (focus chipset - 5659 Kernel)*
£40.00 each

9 x Western Digital 8 GB HDs (supplied locked or unlocked - please specify)*
£12.00 each

7 x 2004 model Philips DVDROM drives (reads all DVDR media and CDRs just like a Samsung)
£50.00 each

12 x 1.2/1.3/1.4 Xbox PSU (UK model)
£10.00 each

4 x Power/eject assemblies (Tri colour direct replacements, no cutting needed)^
£20.00 each

* You can purchase a paired drive and motherboard for £47.00

^ Available in Red/White/Pink - Dark green/White/Light green - Blue/Green/Turquoise - Light blue/White/Dark blue - Red/Blue/Purple colour combos.

The 2004 Philips drives are great, even better than Samsungs as they can read + and - format burnt DVDRs as well as loads of different media (see list below). I have tested the drives with the following:

Brand new Xbox game
Scratched Xbox game
Ritek branded DVD-R
Bulkpaq branded DVD-R
Cheapo noname DVD-R
Datasafe DVD+R
Sony DVD+R
Discplanet CDR
TDK CDR
Cheapo noname CDR
Yamaha CDRW
Intenso CDRW

And they read them perfectly and silently.

We accept the following payment methods:

Direct payments into our HSBC bank account
Internet/phone banking transfers
Cheques
Postal Orders
Cash (must be sent Special Delivery)

PM us with an order - move quick as its first come first served. All non-UK sales must send cash as the banks charge ridiculous amounts to cash non-UK cheques/drafts. We do not accept PayPal because it is a notoriously unsafe payment method.

Any questions please ask.

Seeing as so many US people have PM'd me regarding the Crystal cases I will post the US price on this thread.

Crystal case with face plate is US$200.00 (equivalent UK£110.00) delivered.

Breakdown:

Cost of case - £60.00
Postage - £40.00 (1 week priority, insured)
Packaging - £10.00

Please don't moan ("thats too high" "what a rip off" etc...) - I'm offering them for sale, that is the price, there is where the money goes. It's not my fault that the US/UK exchange rate is crap.

Also - something that may be of interest for my UK people - as some of you know I will be offering professionally installed 128 MB RAM upgrades soon (ETA: 1/2 weeks). The price for this will be £75.00 including return.

I am thinking about selling preupgraded motherboards with a TSOP flash (mobos are all brand new 1.4 focus chipsets, flashed with an X2 BIOS, upgraded using brand new RAM chips (installed using a surface mounting machine by a pro) and then tested for 72 hours). They will be £110.00 delivered.

Please don't PM asking about the RAM upgrades yet - we are waiting for a batch or brand new chips to be delivered. We will then be installing the upgrade on a certain scene members machine and posting pictures of the end product along with his review of the service.

Pizza Pizz - We are about to obtain the review machine to upgrade, once that is done we will PM you with all the details/info.

RcbUK - Will do, as for the other upgrades we will get back to you with a total price once the RAM situation is sorted.

Quick update on the 128 mb upgrade situation - there have been several incidents (unrelated to the upgrade process) that have placed the demo machine upgrade on a temporary hiatus.
