..you can try to contact quantum3d,I think one guy needed the cable just like you,and they have sent him one..the cable pops up on ebay as well (from time to time) :P

You know, I think I may have an extra one. The going price is $20.00 USD plus shipping.

Worry about a private deal? I'm Cool 8)

Frank I have to check my stock. While you were bargin hunting I had several collectors here Paypay me the money from Germany and France.

No more orders please! I have to keep one for my 200SBi and one was sold with the Mercury System. I think I have one more somewhere I just have to locate it.

now i am in uk and can you tell me how much the total price to buy your cable and i can use paypal to pay.thanks!!!

first of all gamma is trustful ;)
1/2 year ago you could buy self-made medusa-cable from germany! 7euro + shipping...

Wow! That's pretty darn cheap, even if it is homemade. Most people here (collectors) would prefer the genuine Q3D cable.

That's a lot of soldering. 26 pins on a medusa.

I made a cable to eliminate the need for a Mercury I/O Connector. It's a flat ribbon cable (floppy style) that connects to the top of the AAlchemy card and goes to a 26 pin female connector that attaches to the medusa cable. It works great! took a couple of hours to build and the assistance of gdonovan for the pinouts. At the time I didn't have a case and the needed connector for my (patience) mercury.

Any "Brick" owners out there that want this cable $20.00 USD + shipping as I no longer have use for it.

i see.thanks!

Be sure to check with the seller about shipping costs before you place a bid :o

ahahaha,  ;D i know what u mean gamma.

do you have more?

I don't know if Edmundoab has any (spare) but I'm out. I kept one for my 200SBi. I have the wiring diagram if you want to make one. I have all the parts to make one but I'm here to tell you, it is a lot of work. I was planning to make one but after soldiering a 26 pin Mercury I/O cable for the Medusa during the "Mercury Project", I sort of lost interest. Then I stumbled across a small cache of them while building the Mercury. With computer_md selling them (the genuine Q3D) on ebay. I didn't feel they had much value, much less a homemade one. Your post came as a complete surprise to me and I saw it as on opportunity to sell one. The response was overwelming. $20.00 USD was a fair price, same as computer_md. I ship a little cheaper I guess ;) I feel sort of bad, I thought I got you hooked up. Would you like the wiring diagram?

lol, i've shipped everything home, but they aren't spares anyway.
just enough for the cards..

even the SB200i i bought from Computer_md does not come with a medusa cable >:(

coz i didn't use the BUY IT NOW option

kind of a ripoff then, he should of put the Medusa cable with the package , would of been a neater service.

I agree. One thing is for sure, the card won't function without the cable...

Correct me if I'm wrong ;)

yeps, I had the same thing with my Canopus Pure 3D 6MB PCI with Composite TV-Out & S/Video-Out.

yeah definately need it.
but since its going to the wall for display.. I don't mind not having it.
or I could just use the one given for my X-24

allright, so they infact use the same cable, never knew that :)

If anyone needs a 100SB cable, I have a couple of extras.

the price of cable is ok but the shipping is too expensive from us to uk...

it is so pity....

I disagree. I had one buyer on ebay back in November 2004 from Italy "Boborules" that ask me to work with him/her on the shipping and I shipped it in a bubble-pac envelope for $2.40 USD Air Letter-post. + $1.89 for the bubble-pac envelope.

I try not to make money from shipping. Sometimes I lose a little. Lost $2.00 when I quoted $10.00 to Minuteman, I forgot it's $12.00 in the Global Priority "Box" vs the envelope. But Hey ::) I not in it for the money. I'm just trying to help out some 3Dfx friends 8)

i know you are a kind man to help me finding the cable

but your friend said the shipping cost is about $65 using  fedx. i can not affdrd so high price of shipping, therefore i give up

but thanks all the same. i am pleasure to get your help.

by the way, do you have chance to get more and sell one of them with suitable price of postage?

;D

WHoa :o

No wonder you didn't buy it. I knew she charged a lot for shipping but I had no idea.

I have to cram for a test tomorrow but will post here again this weekend. I will see what I can do.

Okay Frank,

This is the best I can do for you. I have all the parts to build a Medusa cable. I will let you have it for $20.00 USD Shipped!!

If you don't want it that's fine, I don't want you to feel obligated but I did say I'd see what I could do. I'll probably find a smoking deal on a X-24 without a cable as soon as I sell it as that's the way things tend to work for me. So don't buy it if you don't want it.
