Got mine, they were bagged up and holding onto each other for dear life. Fired right up and looked brand new though.

Anyone running at 15v? I need an ne570 and mn3101 before I can test mine

Mangled. I think I can straighten the pins on 3 of the 4, but this one might be toast.

Mine came hugging each other in the baggy, no foam.  Fired right up despite the total lack of ESD safe packaging.

Looks like they got the memo on proper packaging! I just got a set of 2 and they were properly packed inside an ESD tube that was taped to a piece of cardboard. I still have to verify them but it sounds like these are legit...

He sent an email that a replacement is on the way. I haven't done anything with them yet, though.

So far it seems like all of you who've ordered have gotten real chips, is that right? I don't have anything to test them in, but if they're selling good chips I'm considering buying two pairs for the upcoming Dirtbag board...I just wouldn't want to have them sitting around until September (or whenever the PCB is released) only to learn that they're bad after the return period ended.
