Discontinued items 2020

[exxos]

Firstly this thread is still valid https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/forum/viewt ... =90&t=1262

The discontinued items are either down to unable to source them any more, or end of line products, or sales of that item are less than one sale every six months.

This thread will be updated with more information as and when things happen.


DISCONTINUED

V2.3 STFM 16MHz booster : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0040
I am no longer producing that series. There will be a alternative in the future but I cannot say when these will be on sale.

MEGA ST BUFFER BOARD KIT : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0039
Was mostly required for the above booster, as such there is no use in stocking this board any more.

ST/F/E EXTERNAL FLOPPY CONNECTOR 14 PIN DIN : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0099
I have been unable to locate a source for these. So the listing will be removed from my store shortly.

D-Sub 19 Way HOOD : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0022
As I am unable to obtain the connectors for these any more, it is pointless stocking the hoods. They rarely sell anyway, so the listing will be removed from my store shortly.

D-Sub 19 Way Female Connector solder bucket : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0047
D-Sub 19 Way Male ASCI Connector solder bucket : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0046
I am unable to source these connectors any more. So they will be removed from my store shortly.

FLOPPY DISK DSDD 720K USED : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0117
FLOPPY DISK DSDD 720K USED (no label) : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0118
These will be available until stocks are exhausted.

FLOPPY CLEANING KIT : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0152
Available until the stock is exhausted, and not able to obtain any more stock of these.

TOOLS SECTION : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#TOOLS
All items in this section have now sold. The section will be removed shortly.

4MB SIPP STE RAM SET (4x1MB 30 pin simms) : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0098
Am no longer stocking these. People can solder the header strip onto SIMS themselves in the future.

IDE V1.1 R1C BARE BONES : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0171
As this was still a WIP board, it will be available until stock is exhausted. Trudie is the final outcome, but I don't have time to work on this currently.

REAL TIME CLOCK CARTRIDGE : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0166
These are discontinued now. I do not plan on stopping these again.

40mm Falcon replacement TURBO fan : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0096
Available until stock is exhausted.

BLITTERS : https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0002
All are sold out, and I am unable to obtain any more if I come across any odd ones from maybe scrap STE machines or something, I will list them in my store, Though likely the listing will be removed in the near future.

PS2 MICE 0110 Available until stock is exhausted. These go well with the PeST adapter but people hardly ever buy the mice. So I won't be restocking them once the current stock has all sold.

ALPS REFURB DRIVES #0115 & #0116

Are available until stock is exhausted.

ST 6 CHIP ROM's I am no longer stocking once current stocks are gone. Be it nobody wants them, programing them themselves or to expensive, I have no idea. Though sales are near zero, so they are not going to get done again. I want to reduce the amount of ROM's I am doing anyway.

Its also possible I will discontinue the TOS 104 / 102 ROM's in favour of the 104/206 ROMs instead. Of course people can't use 206 without a decoder, but it will reduce the amount of ROMs I have to keep on top of and I am not really sure TOS102 is really that useful anymore anyway.

I am discontinuing the Swiss German TOS206 STE set. none of these have sold for the past two years, there is currently four sets in stock so they are available until exhausted.

https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/store2/#0016

In fact none of the 206 chips sell particularly well, I think the majority of people just by the dualtos kits these days. So I think I will be looking at discontinuing these chips totally in the near future. I will bump some of the items up in stock to finish off using the ROMs I have though.

EDIT:
I have marked all these now as available until exhausted. I'm still doing some more ROMs currently for stock, theoretically there will be enough stock for two years yet anyway.

Aside from the relative few sales for these, as said previously, I just have that many rom combinations , it is just too much to keep on top of with buying and programming all the variations. Aside from that, again as mentioned elsewhere, we are literally out of storage space to keep all the stock. While one set does not take up much room, when you get up to 10 sets for each language, there were several languages, it does take up a fair bit of shelf space. As I am doing larger and larger batches of DUALTOS boards, I can use the additional space for them instead.
