Check with William Bottomley at High Country Lights. I just bought 2 from him and he had 2 left. Don't know that he still has them, but 3 weeks ago he did

I also bought a couple from William and I've gotta tell you it has been one huge nightmare.

 

First of all, he sold me the board, enclosure and dongles for less than LOR sells just the board only.  I suppose that should have made me suspicious right there.  And then he wouldn't even wait until he received my payment before shipping them to me.  What a jerk...

 

When they arrived, I opened the box and saw two BLACK enclosures.  How about that!  I've been collecting these things for going on six years now, and every other ordinary controller enclosure I have is GRAY.  Every one...  My house siding is GRAY.  Depending on which direction the snow comes from it can sometimes look a bit GRAY also, but I've never seen it BLACK.  So what am I supposed to do with those ugly things?

 

On top of that, the controllers were pre-numbered #23 and #24.  WTF - I already HAVE a 23 and 24.  I was SURE I asked for different numbers than that. 

 

In the end, all I've got to say is that I think a person should go to Ebray and pay three-to-four times what the controllers are worth before doing business with Bottomley.

 

Just saying...

I bought two from him, went to pick them up and all is good here.  I have had just the opposite experience with him.

Hey caniac,  I guessing George was only messing around.  Sometimes he does that.  I bought something from William and no problem other than the box it came it was no good after I opened it.  What the heck is up with that???
