Sorry, I misread the earlier post. I now see that Phoenix Enterprises does sell the SIMM sockets individually to customers in the US and Canada (with an unfortunate $30 minimum order), but they blatantly discriminate (for zero good reason that I can see) against anyone outside those two countries (requiring a $500 minimum order), which is unthinkable. Who does that? Seriously, what are they thinking?
I've lived in Japan since 1994. I am an American. I have often faced such extremely frustrating shipping discrimination from EBAY sellers, until I write and reason with them, and most of the time they suddenly are willing to sell to me when I tell them I am originally from the US, but it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I think people should be treated fairly regardless of the country they buy from, unless that country is under some kind of international sanctions.
$500 min. order for buyers outside North America? Sheesh.
Well, Kai, I agree that some kind of SIMM Socket solution needs to happen for the benefit who live outside North America, which includes yourself and a whole host of other good people who surely will want to do the SE Reloaded build.
