I have not been active in these forums for quite a while (my fascination with all things Voodoo waxes and wanes -- usually in sync with my bank balance), but some of you might remember my little V5 5500 episode (paulpsomiadis bought & fixed the one I busted).

I'm looking for a bit of help in obtaining some CPUs.  I have a use for 3 of AMD's new-ish Athlon 64 LE-1620 processors (single-core, 1MB L2, 2.4 GHz, 45W TDP).  The trouble is, they're REALLY hard to find -- next to impossible in Canada, where I live.  None of my preferred retailers carry the LE-16xx series (I guess no demand & poor margin), and I could only find it in stock at one other online retailer, whose SSL certificate has expired or is invalid.

Now, NewEgg stocks them, priced at $50 each with free 3-day shipping... but they don't ship outside the U.S., period.  Here's the link:

What I need is someone from the U.S. to whom I could PayPal some money to order up three of these CPUs and then ship them to me here in Canada.

I've done business with both paulpsomiadis and gamma742, so they should be able to verify my PayPal account info if needed (my address has changed, though).  I'd like to deal with someone who has an entry in the Feedback thread in the marketplace.

The bill for the processors and shipping to me should be roughly USD $200, so my idea is to send USD $250 to whoever is helping me out, and they can keep the remainder as a handling fee.


If anyone meeting the qualifications above is interested in helping me out, please let me know here or in a PM.

Thanks folks.
