Orcatrainer has put up some more of my stuff, this time we've got a series of Skunkboards coming (6 total, all slightly different
and most unique in some way). They're all tested and verified. He has the first two up here:

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 150795655874
--Skunkboard Revision 3 prototype. This is the rev 2 board that I hacked up to prove the Rev 3 was going to work, complete with the retro shell (but I put a nice label overtop of the torn up one that was there. ). If nobody buys it like this we'll repackage it in a nice shell, but I figured leaving it open proves it's the prototype, cause you can see the wiring.

--Brand new in-box Revision 2 board with cable (and I threw in one of my labels too). I took it out to test and make sure it was still working.

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 150795632262
--This is the vinyl Sinistar sticker/decal, almost 13 inches on a side. I bought two when I did up my Neato robot in case I ruined one trying to figure it out, but the first one did the trick, so I don't need the other one.


He's only going to post two boards at a time, but these two are probably the most interesting ones. There are a couple of bare boards (including a Rev 1) and there are a couple of boards fully packaged in shells. I'll update as more go up.

In addition to that, I've got a handful of spare vinyl Skunkboard labels, sized to fit on a Jaguar shell, that I did up. First come first serve, just IM me. $5 each or 3 for $10 via Paypal. I've got about 20 available.

Is that 3/$10 shipped on those labels? Anyone that buys from me regularly or has a pending shipment want to go in with me on those? I really only need one, but as you all know I'm a cheap bastard

[save2600]

I'd like one of those labels please...

[Tursi]

Yeah, that price is shipped. Be aware that the labels will just be in a standard envelope with a little cardboard reinforcement.

Please PM/message me through the private message system if you want one, so I can get quicker notification and keep easier track of them, especially the time stamps in case I run out. Thanks guys!

Next Skunkboard is up, this is a unique item, I refurbished one of the Rev 2 boards that was returned to me using a Rev 1 Flash chip, so it's a 4MB, high speed writable Skunkboard with a Rev 2 PCB. (The flash is about 20% faster than the Rev 2). I went the extra step of installing it into a shell with a little pigtail, like I'd seen a couple of other people do, and adding one of the Skunkboard labels I had made.

For development, the Rev 1 boards are the absolute best due to the higher flash speed, unless you need the extra space, of course. Either way, this one is unique and there will not be another one like it. Starting bid is $65.

For those curious, there is also an 8MB version coming in a shell like this one.

I still have labels available, and Ax, did you get my PM?

[Tursi]

Next Skunkboard is up! This is a rev 1 prototype - one of the very first ones off the manufacturing line! Comes with a label as well, but no shell.

The boards are going for super cheap. If you want a Skunkboard but have felt that they are too expensive, it's hard to beat the single-bid $65 that the last one went for. Broken boards sell for more than that!!

Starting bid as always is $65.

I was away at Calgary Comic Expo, so I'm late on this update, but the next board is a Rev3 serialized 3001: http://www.ebay.com/itm/150804022005

Note it does not come with the nice box or manual that the GOAT Store version will give you, this is just a board.

[Tursi]

And the last Skunkboard that I am selling is now up here: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 150808089844

Starting at $70. It's a rev 3 installed in a nice shell with one of my labels (which I have lots of left... I figured people would want them. Am I charging too much?)

[Tursi]

Last board is gone, thanks to the bidder who inched at least ONE of my boards up above the value of completely broken ones.

Remember that brand new white Skunkboards are still available with box and manual from GOAT: http://www.goatstore...rd_Rev_3_Ghost/

Man im sad i missed this,lol. I already have a skunk, it just would have been pretty sweet to have it in the shell with the label. Any chance you'd have an extra shell/label you could sell me that i could fit a rev.3 in?

[Tursi]

I still have plenty of labels (well, six left ) at $5 each or 3 for $10. I can probably spare a shell, I dunno what it's worth though - I'll say $5 because it makes the shipping much more of a hassle than the labels, which I can just drop in an envelope.

You would still need to get a USB extension cable that fits the Skunkboard's port, and you'll have to do some mods to the shell to fit the cable and the Skunkboard (the ones that I sold had the USB-A ports removed so that they would fit cleanly in the shell, otherwise you have to cut holes for them to fit, as they make the board slightly too thick for the shell to close.)

Any idea where i can get the right usb cable?

Anywhere that sells USB cables. There's nothing special about it, just a standard mini-B (data) cable. I would recommend a shielded cable, not the cheapest possible Chinese knock-off, but otherwise, yeah.
