Its going to be RARE to actually see a rare chip described as such. I think calling somthing rare when its common is just silly, especially when you know what your looking at. The only time it could benifit you is if someone new to collecting looks at it and buys it. Then they find out its common as bird poop and you end up looking silly.

lol, those are the two that stick out as common to seasoned collectors. I didn't look too close at the others.

well... they are not very common cpus/chips .. they are not like socket A , green pentium 3 or celeron cpus or common eproms ... i can find only few auctions of Motorola like mine on Ebay same for MME , WD or AS9700 ..... so i guess that means that they are kinda rare.... maybe not for a pro collector like active forum members.... i didnt wrote "hard to find" or "you'll never find another one" and prices are maybe the smallest on ebay . .. so no one can assume that i wanna deceive somebody .. and dont know how they are in other countries but at least here in Romania they are ultra rare... anyway ... if you dont like something, you dont buy .. its easy ... i dont force anyone to buy anything ... and i guess any person make some searches before buying something....

everyone has its own definition of RARE.
I can understand that.
Also it can mean it will become rare in years later.

For example i only saw (in my hands) one ES in my entire life... and no one of romanian colectors have any ES in collection .. you just put for sale a lot of them... its normal that for different countries and possibilities the word RARE has different meanings...
