VFDs have arrived! - 26/01/2005 21:55
Greetings!
For all of those players out there that either have a "wardrobe malfunction" (exposed niccles, pierced / cracked / broken) or who want to have a spare to prevent this from happening (like the FCC), I have just received 14 VFDs from Noritake. I do not have individual packing materials yet (I find VHS plastic cases with bubblewrap ship and store very well), but I will this weekend.
If you want to get a replacement VFD, a spare to have available or just like staring at glass niccles, you can have a spare VFD for $65 shipped. Noritake charged about $59.30 each, and with packing, shipping and PayPal, it ends up about even. Please send email in advance to confirm your order. Thanks!
By the way, sorry about the FCC / wardrobe malfunction jokes. There is a lot of press right now about the puritanical streak shown by the FCC and the paranoia of broadcast media...
