Blairgowrie Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 It will go through Customs without any issue, if you mark on the customs declaration that it has nominal value. Quote
Oldtimer Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 It will go through Customs without any issue, if you mark on the customs declaration that it has nominal value. Thanks Jim. @Smash - it's yours if you want it. Quote
Zooly Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 I might be able to put my hands on a intel dual core 2.8gb (note, not the core 2 duo) processor if that helps. Quote
gec Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Gec, Are you sure? If OT wraps up the RAM well and sticks it in a tiny parcel and labels it SMALL PACKAGE and writes on the declaration sticker that it's a 'toy' worth $2, I'm sure postage/shipping won't be more than a few quid and he'll bypass customs. No? if u send it via regular mail i guess u r right Quote
Smash Posted October 16, 2009 Author Posted October 16, 2009 Yeah zooly that'll work. Well now that zooly offered That i'll only need A dvd drive. Quote
Zooly Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 I'll send the chip when I can find something to put it in (I saw something yesterday at work), posting will be will be cheaper if I dont send the heatsink will that be OK? Quote
Zooly Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 I cant put my hand on one (which kind of pi$$es me off coz I know I had at least 1) all I have available at this time is a P4 2.8 with board and all the trimmings. Again, I'm sorry but I know there is a cleanout due of the computer room and there should be one in there. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted October 16, 2009 2. Administrators Posted October 16, 2009 I might have a DVDRW going begging m8. It's a bit heavier than a processor or memory, so I'll try to get an idea of prices before you get too excited. Jabo Quote
Smash Posted October 17, 2009 Author Posted October 17, 2009 Awesome i'll cover shipping cost for ya. Quote
Snacko Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 You're going to have a Frankenstein PC by Halloween Smash! Quote
Smash Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 You're going to have a Frankenstein PC by Halloween Smash! LoL i hope Quote
Zooly Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 I now have a processor available but i'm not sure how to send it so any advice on this would be appreciated. BTW its a Pentium D 2.8, is this compatible with the board you have? also as mentioned it will be a lot cheaper (easier?) to send the chip without its heatsink, will that be OK? Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted November 1, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Posted November 1, 2009 I've checked my closet and have found an AOpen CD-R/RW/DVD-Rom Drive, if this would help its yours mate. Just gathering dust, send me a PM with your address and I'll mail it out tomorrow. Sorry I haven't been following this thread lately. Pooka Quote

Yeah i have a heat sink from another computer i have. Yeah by all means just send the chip. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted November 4, 2009 2. Administrators Posted November 4, 2009 Sorry Smash m8, I have a requirement for my 'spare' DVDRW drive (building a new machine for the parents), so Pooka's option might be best for now. Jabo Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted November 4, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Posted November 4, 2009 Hi again Smash... Like I mentioned in the PM, the DVD Drive is IDE type, I don't have a SATA version on hand. Quote
