Update on the next phase of our group buy:
The official purchase order from my company to the RAM seller has been sent and accepted. 2 trays of 108 chips each have been reserved for a limited amount of time and the payment must be completed as soon as possible. Due to legal issues, the shipping has to be to the adress of the buyer company, in Romania. The cost of shipping through theyr FedEx account to be payed is 45 Euro. So, with no other option left, the package with all 216 chips will arrive straight in my hands. From here, if some buyers decide to ask me to mod cards for them, I will keep theyr chips; else I will send the items to the provided adresses.
I will post bellow a list with the names, number of chips and the amount of money the selected perssons should pay to complete this phase (the cost to have all the chips arrived to me, in Romania).

RaverX    - 25 chips - 75 Euro
Rolo01       - 50 chips - 150 Euro
M14Radu    - 20 chips - 60 Euro
Komponent - 13 chips - 39 Euro
Osckhar    - 50 chips - 150 Euro
Ps47    - 20 chips - 60 Euro
Nitrox Infinity - 12 chips - 36 Euro
Kaitou - 14 chips - 42 Euro
Rottentreats - 12 chips - 36 Euro

So, the price for a single chip of 16Mb SDRAM to have it arrived in my possesion is just above 3 Euro, including taxes and shipping to Romania, but for convenience and to keep my word I will have it set to a round 3 Euro each.
Our friend, Rolo01 will be collecting the money from all of us and next he will do the bank transfer to pay to the RAM seller company. You will settle with Roland on how do each of you will send him your share, but please make it fast. In this deal, time is of the essence.
To all parties in this group buy: Please contact Rolo01 through private message on this forum or other way and send him the money as soon as possible. Thank you for your cooperation!

How much would the mod + chips will be?

8x8MB -> replace wirht -> 8x16MB

First, and as soon as possible, please send your share of 42 Euro to Rolo01. He has to collect all the above listed sums to be able to pay to the RAM seller company the chips.
Then, after the memory arrives into my posession, if you decide to do so, you can send me cards to have them modded with your chips, or I can have your chips shipped to a adress you will provide.
So, first you pay to Roland for the price of the chips; only after that you send cards and pay to me for modding and shipping.
My condition for modding cards are:

Well... if by any chance someone wants to have me perform the mod on his card(s), here are my condition I work on:
-You pay for shipping both ways.
-You agree for patience. I have little spare time from my dayly job and modding video cards takes alot of time to be done in proper way.
-You send me 5 RAM chips for a Voodoo4 card and 10 memory modules for a Voodoo5 5500 card (and your card to be modded too, ofcourse).
-You agree to pay 10 Euro for the rework of one Voodoo4 card and 25 Euro for modding one Voodoo5 5500. If by my fault, modding is not successfull, you pay nothing for my work, I send the parts back to you, but I do not pay for damages.
-As I am a private individual, not a company, I cannot give you receipts for payment made.
-You can ask me to send back the old chips on the card and the left-over spares, or you can send a Voodoo4 AGP card too to have it modded too using the old chips to 64Mb (by soldering 4 of the old chips in the empty spaces on the PCB), for a rework price of 5 Euro for a Voodoo4 AGP, but, ofcourse, I would me more than happy if you let me keep the old and/or spares chips to have them used in other new 3DFX projects of mine. Wink

-I am not responsable for DOA situations.
By the way, I am located in Romania (that is in the European Union).
If anybody still wants to have me modd his card(s) after reading the above conditions, feel free to contact me.

Komponent,

What I would like to do is have the memory shipped to you (enough to mod a V5 5500 PCI) then I will aquire the card and ship it to you for the re-work.

Is that okay?

How much are we looking at for my project?

Once you answer my post, others will have a better idea how they wish to proceed.

Thanks,
Bob~

Rolo is all of your 50 pieces spoken for? I guess I wasn't clear that I wanted in. if you only have a few extra maybe I can ask my friend Oscar for a few.

Small update: after the payment will be cleared (probably Monday), the chips will be shipped to me. I am confident that everything will go smooth, so it is time to decide what you want to do with your share. The ones who want the chips shipped to a location of theyr choice, please contact me and provide the adresses.
