Thanks very much, and given that it's $59.99 Euros, the price of $130.00 USD including airmail delivery seems pretty sweet.

The one I got (that's coming) is in a case with label...

Here's a photo of it the guy sent me.

It's funny, the guy that I bought this from told me he had a MegaCart, and had no use for this. The guy that I bought my MegaCart from said he had a Final Expansion and hand no use for the Megacart. I do count myself quite fortunate.

My Final Expansion arrived today in perfect condition.

Opened up the case, as I was curious what version was in the case. Turns out it's a Rev.9

The seller was kind enough to include an SD card loaded and set up with a ton of games. As it turns out as luck would have it, it had my favorite VIC-20 game on it of all time. Cyclons by Syntax. I hadn't played that game since probably 1984. What a blast. Was worth every dime to me just to play that game again.

The cartridge works PERFECTLY.

So happy!

I see they're available again in the guys store ( http://www.sinchai.de/index.php?main_pa ... ucts_id=77 ) . Couldn't resist, and ordered myself a V3 Rev.10. Wanted to have the experience of putting one together myself, and see what the differences are between the one I bought second hand and the new one.

Got a relative in Germany to place the order for me. He's been communicating with the guy, and apparently he's shipping out mine this weekend. He's expecting it to arrive on Monday. I should have it in a week or so then, as he'll mail it off to me once he gets it. Cool.

Now I'll have what everyone needs... a spare! 8)

Thanks! Really looking forward to soldering one together. Feel that I lost something when I couldn't do that with the first one. Love these kinds of projects...
