WANTED: Large quantity of 2x23 Card Edge Connectors
Posted: Fri Jan 26, 2018 9:44 pm
I hope this is the right place for this post.
I'm looking to purchase about 1,000 2x23 card edge connectors for use with the ZX81.
I've seen a single post on SellMyRetro which has one seller in Germany which cuts them down from longer connectors and
I've contacted him and he's going to get back to me, but ultimately I'm looking to find a second supplier in case
he is unable to provide the quantity I need. That is nothing personal against him at all; I'd just like to mitigate the risk of
one single supplier failing to supply.
I'm based in the UK, but I am willing to purchase from anybody who is willing to ship to the UK.
I'm not expecting to find genuine NOS 23x2 connectors (Although I am suspicious as to whether these ever existed at all, and Sinclair simply modified longer connectors in the first place), but I would expect you'd need to cut down 25x2 or 30x2 connectors, de-burr the edges and fit the 'key'.
