eBay says there is a problem with the photos but gives me no technical details, like file too large. The preview looked fine, so I had no clue that the submitted listing would have problems.

I will fix it as soon as possible. If anybody has any advice, I'd be grateful

Maybe that's related to the price also? You can keep the photo size large, but shrink the item price instead... Laughing

Ha ha... I have been advised that this is a reasonable price for such a rare and important chip and board, in essentially perfect condition.

In any case, I shot a new set of photos and they are now up.

I Included a closeup of the edge traces (or what do you call them? -- I've been out of the hardware business for a while) which show scratches from a few remove/replaces of the board.

Other than that, I have examined the whole thing carefully and can find no signs of wear or damage. That makes sense, since it's been in a box and bag, unused and rarely even handled since it was decommissioned soon after it was bought (we switched to the MOS Technology 6502 line).

Apologies for the lack of polished photos, which I am not equipped to shoot. I am assuming that aficionados will be fine with these as long as they show the condition clearly. But I would appreciate any advice.

Can you email me the original photos? I have a database of old Intel boards like this I use for dating chips
Thanks!

It will not sell at the price you are asking.
With rare chips like this one in such good condition you are best to start it off with a $1 reserve and it will reach it's market price no worries.

I'd be happy seing it sell at that price as I have the same board. That price BIN might work with enough patience;-) Otherwise noone knows how the pins look like. Black death? You should try a bit more effort for the money you ask.

Sorry for any inconvenience, but this board is now listed on ebay under a different item. It's an identical listing -- I did this to take advantage of a significant ebay seller promotion. The new item for the board is...

Thanks. --David

I have had several requests for hi-res pictures of the board -- shots that are better than what can be downloaded from ebay. I will be happy to post such photos for public download, but I would prefer to wait until the item is sold. I will announce it here when they are up. I hope this is not an inconvenience for anyone.

@djlewis - Do you sell internationally? In my case it would be Germany?
