Ive been kinda debating setting up a web store and stockpiling the nicer pci, isa and agp cards that would be otherwise scrapped out at the shop. If you are in need of a card, let me know and i can set you up with a deal, tested worKing.
just send me an email with what you need and i will let you know whats in stock. Idea is to catch the good cards before they end up in the barrel. Even still ive had about 50/50 luck with getting stuff to work once its out there. https://i.postimg.cc/4xXJXf62/20181108-161022.jpg On Thu, Nov 8, 2018 at 3:15 PM William Donzelli via cctalk < cctalk@classiccmp.org> wrote: > > $7-10 to sort out and carefully handle (vs usual strip for gold > recovery), > > seems pretty reasonable to me.
