I Assume? Of course I do. For example, I tell all of my guests to "drive safely" when they leave my home. Reminding them to think about safety doesn't mean I assume they are unsafe drivers. I can also remind people that their chips may be worth more than they think without assuming they don't know. If everyone already knows the market price of these chips, like you propose they do, then you won't find anyone here willing to sell their chips cheaper than the prices on eBay or the various arcade repair sites.
"
...you won't find anyone here willing to sell their chips cheaper than the prices on eBay" - again an assumption... No, there are many people, like myself, that also have components lying around that they will never use and just put in an envelope because someone else can use them, or swap them for other components. I think your
assumptions easily reveal what kind of person
you are...
It seems after a night of sleep you edited the text slightly, luckily there is always the notification email with the original text ;-) ("

Why not hundreds of euros? Some of the parts on your list are selling for $25 to $50 each on arcade repair sites. I would assume the rest are more difficult to find and worth much more. Possibly hundreds of euros.
All those assumptions of yours... You keep on assuming things (and reminding people) of the possible worth of their chips… What are you, the “guardian of people that might want to swap or sell electronic components”? Who asked you to play this role in this forum?
I'm sorry, I didn't realize ebay was such a nasty site to use. Which site do you use?
Funny, after some hours you edited your text here as well, as it said: "
What site do you use to sell your stuff?"...
What exactly are you trying to achieve, except illustrating that you seem to be somewhat frustrated. I feel sorry for you, not sure what happened in your live that made you such a person.
But, please, I no longer want to read your insults, assumptions and false accusations, please send me a PM, instead of using the forum. I won’t read it, but if it relieves you, feel free. Meanwhile I’ll try to find some moderator who will hopefully stop this behavior and make sure the forum is used for what it is supposed to be used for. Bye, bye.
