maybe you fellas should elaborate on this a bit instead of making a general comment.

  I too have had mixed results.  Out of 5 or so transactions, 3 were great, 1 was seriously botched and 1 completely ripped me off.

    Hi To All
     About a year ago I found myself interested in synth stuff after
    a long period of pursuing a real career (medical electronics)
    To save time and design work I decided to buy pcbs and other
    selected items from people off this list. Big mistakes on my part!
    After about a dozen or so transaction I have found the clear
    majority to have ended in simple fraud. Or at the very least   
    a complete arrogant and uncaring dishonest attitude.
    Is it just me? Does anyone else here have this experience?
    What is it about this list? I am perplexed. Also believe me when
    I say it is not really the money I have lost. It is the pain in the
    ass about it all! I have made a pact with a friend to slap me really
    hard if I have the urge to buy from the synth-diy group.
    I now understand the synth-diy idea, that is I must design and
    fabricate anything I want. I can do that, progress is just slow due
    to limited time on my part. I will do all future projects myself.
     Having said all that let me just say that the above rant does not
    include elby designs. Thanks Laurie for being such  a reputable business
    person.
     If anyone wants a list of recommended suppliers drop me a line.
    Jeri
