Got an answer form him today.
He says he has some backlog that he is currently trying to deal with.
Apparently he's away this week.
Evereything should be sent next week, in my case.
Crossing fingers.

Mmmm-mmmm.....still sounds fishy....dunno.....I guess my actions did wake him up properly....so I have no regrets.

As said, IF and WHEN I receive the PCB I will change my feedback for him....but it won't be a raving good one anyway...

If one have the time to put an item for sale on Ebay, then he is obligated to ship as fast as possible, max 3 days!, there´s no excuse what so ever :evil: :evil: :evil: (personal/family emergencies put aside)

It's probably my fault, I actually spent over 550euro, just added it up!

The PCB arrived last saturday so I popped it in the Asteroids and it didn't work.

Seller sold it as untested but did mention it was tested succesfully in 2013...

Didn't have time to have a long look, maybe there is a problem with a bad EPROM socket.

The extra PCB is WEIRD. I showed it to Jochen and he noticed there were two wires going to the main PCB for plus and minus and the thirst wire was a look going back to the small PCB again....so how can it even do anything !?!?!?

Strange but....I'm glad as it means I can safely remove it.

On my side, I got a tracking number but it is not working yet.
Hopefully tomorrow it's gonna work...  :shock:

Oh my ... it was only now that I realized it was him that I bought my spare NAMCO Galaxian pcb from a few weeks ago.

Same story ... "untested, but was working when stored in 2013".

Upon arrival, it had a few parts missing, and is very far from being working (clock was dead, now, upon replacing the 74107 at 1D, it has a clock, but keeps watchdogging) .. oh my.

Sorry for not jumping in here earlier, the nickname didn't ring a bell right away.

Mmmm.....

He offered to look for another Asteroids board but he can still not test even If he finds one...

This board has zere repairs, I will hook it up to the Fluke and see....the test mode gives some low "bop" sounds which probably means some bad RAMs.

I received my stuff too.
But 3 weeks for 20 something kilometers, it's one kilometer a day...
A bit slow IMHO.

Didn't know where the guy is located.
Only saw it on the Colissimo website when it said "Posted from Paris".
Damned!!!   :evil:
Next time I'll move my ass.
