5101 NVRAM Stock
Posted on 09/13/2023Small amount of a new pcb design 5101 NVRAM are now in-stock. The new design is just a slightly larger pcb that is easier for us on the assembly side of things. Since pricing is very much tied to assembly time nowadays, we are able to offer the new design at a bit lower price compared to the compact design we had been offering. It should also allow us to have better availability on this product going forward. If there is still demand for the compact design, we will continue to produce it in small batches from time-to-time. If you're interested in the compact version of the 5101 please let us know. Once we hear from enough customers we'll assemble another small batch.
PIGGYDEUX Back In-Stock
Posted on 07/26/2023Good News! We have the PIGGYDEUX boards back in-stock. It's been about 3-4 months since these were last available. What's always cool with this item is when we hear from people who fixed their non-working Gottlieb System 80B game just by installing the PIGGYDEUX. A few customers have told us to never stop selling them because of their usefulness =) These are only being built in small batches so when they do sell out they may go out of stock for a few months (sometimes longer).
New Shopping Cart
Posted on 07/18/2023A new shopping cart was added to the website, so you'll see some changes to how the checkout works. When you add an item to your shopping cart, a cart icon will appear mid-page and show the number of items in the cart. You are free to navigate the website and add other items. Clicking on the cart icon at any time will show the cart and allow you to checkout when ready. Checkout / Payment is still through Paypal and there is still an option to quickly checkout with Paypal Express.
July 2023 Updates - PIGGYDEUX Availability & Shipping
Posted on 07/15/2023Good News! The next batch of PIGGYDEUX boards is currently being assembled and should be completed soon. We'll only have enough boards to fill most of the requests on the waitlist, so the individuals that had already signed up on the waitlist will get first shot at the latest batch. Emails should be going out next week (Tuesday or Wednesday) so if you've been waiting a bit for the new stock, you won't have to wait too much longer! If you haven't signed up on the waitlist yet & are interested in a PIGGYDEUX, get signed up ASAP. Another batch will be getting assembled soon after the first batch is completed so we can have a bit of website inventory. Please note that this particular product may go out of stock at times for 2-3 months (sometimes a bit longer) in-between batches until there's enough sign-ups on the waitlist. In other news, Paypal is back to its shenanigans of developers changing code and breaking things that previously worked. We've used Paypal buttons for over a decade and it seems Paypal wants to drop customers from these into more expensive options, or force the use of their API. So while things are currently working fine for the most part, we see the writing on the wall and will likely be making a change to the shopping cart in the near-future.
