I am extending this till Sunday at Midnight EST.
Ok folks, time for another group buy.
This time we have up for your consideration SNES/N64 RGB Euro scart cables from Play-Asia:
http://www.play-asia.com/rgb-cable-paOS-13-49-en-70-64.html
These cables are suitable for NTSC SNES consoles (US or JP) as they have the needed caps on the RGB lines. They will also work with RGB modded NTSC N64 consoles and NESRGB modded NES/Famicoms (and PAL Gamecubes). Not suitable for PAL SNES units unless the caps are removed and resistors installed in their place. Don’t expect a super high end cable here or anything. They work fine but aren’t made of premium grade cabling. I have also noticed in some of these cables the Left and Right audio is swapped. That can be fixed with swapping the 2 audio wires in the scart shell with a soldering iron. Also the picture shows a gold contact Scart connector. All the one's I have seen are your typical nickel plated ones.
Play-Asia sells them for $3.99 plus shipping. Their cheapest shipping is like $3.90 for economy shipping (hello 3 weeks shipping time). So a total of $7.89 for a single cable.
However if we can buy 100 of them they are $2.10 each and shipping via FedEx (3 to 5 day) to me is $85.90 for a total of $295.90 or $2.96 per cable. Plus shipping from me to you which will likely be $2 to $3 depending on cable quantities you order. So I can get a cable into your hands cheaper and quicker than just ordering it straight from Play-Asia with the slow boat shipping option.
I verified with play-asia 10 days ago that they had 300 units in stock.
Rules for this group buy:
0. Read and understand all of these rules. They are designed to make things clear.
1. The group buy starts now and runs through till midnight eastern time on Friday June 6th. I am extending this till Sunday at Midnight EST. No more interest can be declared in them after that cut off.
2. If you are interested in a cable (or multiples) ONLY post in this thread. Do NOT fucking PM me saying you want one. Your PM will be ignored and most likely deleted. It’s easier for us all to keep track of interest in this thread.
3. Once the group buy has ended, I will PM everyone on the list asking for payment for the cables ONLY (not shipping from me to you). This will secure the cables to be shipped to me. I expect to have payments from everyone within 48 to 72 hours at the latest. Keep this in mind!
4. Once the cables have arrived, I will PM everyone again on the list asking for shipping funds. I have a postal scale, label maker (new 4x6 inch unit!) and online postal account that will make shipping these quicker and cheaper (online postage is hella cheaper).
5. This pricing only works if we can secure 100 cables or more. If we go over, the price might slightly decrease (we are talking pennies here). If we come up short on cables, I will cover the remaining cables (to give us the 100 cable price break) providing it’s a reasonable amount. I ain’t covering 75 cables though. If I have to cover the expense of extra cables, those extra units may or may not be sold at the group buy price. So, if you want the group buy cable price, get in on it now.
So with all that said, post interest (or questions) in this thread. I will keep a running total in this first post. Feel free to declare interest in several if you like. As with any group buy, I make no profit from this.
