Oh and I don't know if he still does but Chromesphere's store had some (I can't currently remember the name, look at his profile).

Thanks for the plug Scruffie!
THese chips are a bit of a pain to test, but I keep getting requests for them so I have ordered another lot to restock.  Should be a week or 2 away.

Don't mention it! I'd have said you first if it had crossed my mind.

I find a good quick way to test for a real 3008 is to make a 3007 adapter board for it and plug it in to a chorus, you can quickly test if it works as the sound is more instantly obvious than a delay and as that package shape was only used for the 3008 & 3005 the worst that you end up with is what happened to me... a 3005 re-labelled 3008 ;D

Have you dropped the bbd's in a verified working build or are you just having troubles with getting your build to work?  I ask because I was thought I had a bunch of duds when I put my first aquaboy together.. I never figured out what was wrong with my build but the bbds were fine!

If you are looking for a set of MN3008s and don't want to wait I along with a handful of madbeaner's grabbes a set MN3008s here:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/291175702355?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

They were legit and the seller is from the US. Two for $12.50 is definitely worth it...

no I haven't dropped them in a working build but everything I did with my troubleshooting points towards the bbds being bad
