Doug,

 

If Brian is not able to send you one, I would be happy to. It might be a bit 
thick to ship in a padded envelope as normal ‘air mail’ which is supposed to 
have a 19mm maxim thickness. I have pushed the limits of this in the past to 
closer to 25mm and the packages went through. The difference in shipping cost 
is drastic, $6 for ‘air mail’ $16 for first class parcel.

Hi Brian,

 

Years ago when I was a trainee, I replaced my Molex socket with a DIP machined 
pin one so I could use it for a project i was working on- I am sorely 
regretting that nowadays.....   It excludes me from the REX/CPM stull for 
example.

 

I would have purchased that set of 10, but they don't ship to Australia - so I 
would have to use my forwarder there at $40 odd....  and that get stupidly 
expensive.

 

Would you be willing to sell me one and put it in a padded envelope for 
shipping down under?

 

Kindest regards,

 

Doug Jackson

There's some new sockets on ebay

I still have a bunch and will give or sell cheap a few to whoever needs 
a them for repairs & spares, but still, I figured this should be pointed 
out.

Anyone doing repairs should probably go scoop some up.
