That's so true! Now it's time to think about premium service with subscription fee Smile
I think John deserve more than 2% or so percent for his job. We have to keep him motivated Very Happy

"Currently at any given time AVICC has over $3000 owed.". Wow. I should pay you more often.

Hehe, I was wondering if you would have a section about odd things shipped to AVICC! The bathroom tiles were mine! I've also had Lego go through AVICC.

And as Hugo noted, I would not have been able to get half of my chips without AVICC. Many thanks!

Yep, I've been told about really strange things shipped via AVICC Very Happy

I thought two motherboards were strange enough, silly me.
CPUShack, at these amounts it's like a CPU logistics central.

I'd like to add two more function at AVICC.

One is Want list:

put your want list with max and your prefer (e.g. live or dead) with sample photo if neeeded.

e.g. I'm looking for Intel C4002-2 grey trace with max USD400 with mint condition. Max will be discounted with the worse condition.

Another example will be Alpha 21264B made by Samsung, my max is USD300 etc.

Another one is Sell list:

put your spare at your desired price.

e.g. AMD-K71000MMR24B A with the desired selling price USD30

AVICC can match the willing buyer and willing seller with this database. Transaction fee will be paid to AVICC once the Transaction is done.

Any idea.

Agree with bccwchan - like cpushack.com or cpu-world but with WTB/WTT labels Smile

At some point i will add more features.
I am not a great programmer though (nor do I have the time lol), so I usually pay my normal programmers to do such things

I kinda thought this was obvious but apparently not

If you buy an item on eBay (scrap lot, chip whatever) and have it shipped to AVICC, and then I reship it to you, and a chip is damaged, AVICC is not going to pay you for the damaged chip.

Ah, yeah...pretty obvious I would think too. Maybe you can offer insurance at a cost of 100% of the value of the chip lol
