Seen on eBay
« on: August 23, 2017, 04:48:06 PM »

Whilst looking through the latest batch of listings, I came across a relay set that was available to purchase. It appears that the local kuro neko was not that interested in the old technology!

For that example the starting price is £30 (the black cat is not included in the sale), whilst a different set has a £25 starting price.

Thinking about it, that's probably why they're worth so much these days !!  :blush:

Looks like an SSDC2 relay set, with Carpenter relays. Oh deep joy adjusting those.

It even says 'cat not included' in the listing.
Surely people wouldn't assume ..... or would they?
