another simmons hausse

OK, I'm not all for this Ebay link posting but this was too amazing not 
to comment:

OK, many eproms, but none originals (in the sense "with the real 
sticker") and still battery cover missing. I suspect the knob cover is 
missing too but that he doesn't know it should be there...

With one channel costing 360 USD, an SDS-7 is soon back to it's original 
value. *giggles*

Nice stash, but nothing special or worth buying for this amount of  
money !
So I'm happy to have bought the SDS 7 again with 5 channels and after  
changing the
Nicad to a battery, it's now working flawless :-) For € 189.- excl.  
tax !!!
I sampled a bassdrum and a snare from my Linndrum into the EPB and  
burnt it on two
chips for the SDS 7...very fat sounding and that is before adding the  
analogue part !

Hey Michael, we should throw our sounds together and start a website  
selling EPROMS with
rare sounds for € 150.- /per piece ;-) That's about the price they  
originally cost back then...hahaha

That is nuts. Sure, lots of eproms but you could've bought an EPB, USB programmer and a bunch of blank eproms for that. Plus, we're talking about an SDS1 here - yuck.
BTW, aren't most of those eproms copies of Michael's .bin files posted on Wolfgang's site? Weaksauce.
