Sourcing MN3005's for a Total Recall

[Timko]

I've had a Total Recall in my stack of boards for a few years now and wanted to pick it up as a holiday project.  However, I'm finding that the Xvive MN3005 isn't as readily available as it used to be.  Is my best source for these something like this eBay store, or is there another place I should be looking?

Cabintech is good. I would go directly to their site rather than using their ebay store. You will likely come out a little cheaper.

I usually get mine from Sythcube but they are out of stock right now.

They even have the Panasonics

Cabin tech has them for that too. That's about 10.00 more than what they should be going for, such bullshit.

Cabintech is a legit xvive distributor and that price is not anything out of the norm? The past few years SBE sold them for $21.95. Where are you getting them for $12?

Synth cube had them for 15.00, I got some there a while back.

Sythcube has had them in stock regularly for $15 for at least a couple of years. They have a 20% sitewide sale 2 or 3 times a year that makes them $12.

I got a couple for $12 each in August in anticipation of the upcoming Tourbus project

They were out when I checked last night.

I've used synthcube plenty for MN3005s—the sales are great for that. I think that their pricing is exceptionally low rather than everyone else being too high. If you're in a bind, CabinTech has much more consistent supply of BBD chips. But yeah, definitely not cheap.

Thanks everyone!  I'm going to watch SythCube for a little bit, but if push comes to shove and my build gets finished with no BBDs, I'll go with Cabintech.
