Don't worry. There is many PII ES elsewhere.
Be patient to wait for your ES.  |

If that's 6 PII ES's ( ) then I'm doing something wrong. I'm on ebay searching through CPU lots and looking at almost every PII auction I can find 5-6 days per week and I've been unlucky thus far. (Been doing that for ~2 months now)
Well unlucky excluding the PII 450 ES I won in bccwchan's auction, but if I know your style you probably picked up all 6 of them for like $5 a piece or some other rediculously cheap price  |

Yes P2 ES and all but one under $15
all BIN or BO listings. I rarely bother with auctions as someone else normally will find b4 the auction finishes and pushes price up.
Not P2.. but yesterday picked up two QE66ES P3 Xeons on a reasonable BIN listing. _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

I guess there's many PII ES elsewhere in USA. I just don't know where exactly they're.  |

Sometimes we pay more, sometimes we pay less. That's the funny part of cpu collection.
I can't forget what I've paid for my first C4003 (normal but one pin is shorter ). That's over USD200 for it. Stupid but funny memory for me. |

Just got the package today!
I was like a kid in a candy store opening it in my car after stopping at the post office on my way to work.
Both chips are in fantastic condition! With the 487 being NOS the condition was expected, but the Q563ES is in great shape as well. I also really like my bonus PII cup pad! Thanks bccwchan!
All of the chinese written on the packaging was interesting to look at too.
I have another package coming in this week with an interesting ebay find so I'll be posting a few pics soon. |

I'm glad that you like them all. I understand what you feel when you receive the parcel. Everytime I received the parcel from AVICC, I felt extremely excited to open the parcel and checked it one by one.
I therefore love cpus always. |
