Guest Paul (MVP) Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 While browsing through the site of MoDaCo Plus Partner Semsons today (where MoDaCo Plus members receive a 10% discount don't you know!), I came across the rather nifty looking bit of kit below at a bargain price of only $4.99 - it's an extUSB to miniUSB / 3.5mm converter. Unfortunately shipping costs from the US means it's probably only a viable purchase for those also on that side of the pond (unless you pick up one of their wide range of BT GPS at the same time), but it looks like a very hand piece of kit to have! Visit the product page to find out more and to order! P
Guest Neil5459 Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 Perhaps if enough people want one, we can do a bulk order. An order for 10 comes out at less than $8 each :)
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 Seems a good idea, i'm in! Let's start a traditional group buy list... reply with your name added to the current list if you're in like so... P GROUP BUY: Paul (MVP)
Guest cjgarside Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 (edited) Hello, Yeah I'll have one! However just as an alternative (although it is more expensive but is shipped from the UK) is this: http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?partner=modaco&i=144681. Discount is available for ordering 5 or more and the shipping cost of £4.05 for between 1 and 4 and then £6.33 for 5 or more. So if a few of us ordered this one instead then the price would come down (probably still not as cheap as the Semsons one but we wouldn't have any shipping difficulties etc. I have one and it works really well with my MDA Vario II. ************************************************** GROUP BUY: Paul (MVP) mandt cjgarside Edited July 18, 2007 by cjgarside

Guest FragMeister Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 I got one from HK off eBay for my Vario II. It doesnt have a dual output though (the seller does one though), but is ok for my needs: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Strero-Audio-Adapter...VQQcmdZViewItem
Guest Doublevision Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 I'll jump on the band wagon, this seems an excellent little adaptor. Please PM me when money is required or details change.

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 Including the slightly quicker delivery, that puts us at $81.40 for 11 adaptors, between 11 people is $7.40 each, which is £3.61 per person. We'll need to factor in the cost of postage once they arrive in the UK plus any paypal fees as people send me the cash, but we're looking at under a fiver now i'd say. Let's leave this going until the end of tomorrow, then i'll contact everyone on how to pay and put the order in! P

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 Y'know, I wonder if this could be the first of many group buys? :) P
Guest Police Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 Hi guys, I'm new in this Forum. I'd like to add myself for the adaptor but I don't know if shipping to Italy is a problem for you. I have a Paypal account but I don't know which will be price for me and who can manage shipping to my address. Let me know and thank you in advance. Max
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 We'd have to factor that into the costings, and I'm not sure it would end up being worthwhile. I'll contact you when the GB closes. P
