Title: Amstrad Spares now available (ULAs, CPUs, RAM, CRTC)
Post by: Spirantho on 18:10, 07 August 14
Hi everybody,


Please forgive the spam :)


http://www.mutant-caterpillar.co.uk/shop/index.php?cPath=65 (http://www.mutant-caterpillar.co.uk/shop/index.php?cPath=65)


I've updated my "spares" section of my shop again. It now has more Amstrad components, including brand new-old-stock ULAs, both 40007 and 40010!
If anyone knows where I can find 40226 pre-ASIC or 40489 ASIC chips please let me know as I'd like to have them on my shop too. :)


I'll be putting them up on eBay too at some point (though at a higher price because of eBay fees) and SellMyRetro Buy and Sell Retro Electronics Home Computers Arcade and Video Games (http://www.sellmyretro.com) too.


Any other suggestions for my spares section please ask!


Spam over. :)

Virtual slapping for spamming on our Forum...     Cool, I didn't know you had Spectrum +3 ASICs on offer, I was looking for one of those recently. :)

Virtual "Ouch" for being slapped :) I hope it's useful to people to know that there is now a ready supply of Amstrad ULAs for 464 and 6128s, though.


As for the +3 ASICs, I only got them in with the other Amstrad ULAs yesterday; that's why you didn't find any before. :)


Edit: just noticed that a similar post I made to the Amstrad.es forums has been edited to remove the link to my shop. I'm very glad you don't do that here - after all, I thought people would want there to be somewhere to go to to buy things like ULAs! Thanks for not deleting my post and allowing the spam. :)

Well I don't count a link to retro spares to be spam. It's not like you linked to something completely off topic. Your link is welcome to stay.

Thank you!

That's what I couldn't work out... I thought I was helping Amstrad people by providing a spares service (and tracking down and buying those spares) as part of my business so it was a bit galling to not be able to tell anyone that they were available!
At least people know here, anyway :)

I have tonnes of spares here too, but I don't usually sell them, they are only for my own repairs, although if someone needs one I usually offer them what I have (µPD765, SED, RAM, ULA's, CPUs, AY's and 8255's and most types of CRTC).

Way too late, but why on earth would we remove such a link? I'd even allow it if someone from Amazon came here and placed a link to their products if they were relevant. Doesn't make any sense censoring such stuff...
