search for "IBM TCM" or "IBM MCM" - you will see a few.

They are not that common but sometime show up on eBay. Be prepared to spend around $200, but they are gorgeous.

Has he finished old trades from 2 months old ? I do not recommend to contact before he will fix old cases.

Check your AVICC list, maybe it's here.

Last time he went AWOL was a computer problem but he came back - he had actually mailed my chips to John and I never paid for them because he never sent his PP ID to me - when he did resurface I paid him. He seems to come and go - I guess he has a day job like the rest of us....
