FS Egret 2/Windy 2/NNC/Q25 (Repair refund)

For Sale
Print out a label to throw in the box with your contact info, email address, and return address. Pack it good. Then give John at PnL Video: 626-337-9782 a call. He'll give you an address to send it to.

The address I have might be old. But his number should be current.

EDIT: Depends on how much work he has on hand. I have seen him send me an MS8 back in 3 days. My buddy's Windy II chassis took 1.5 weeks. This guy is good. Just don't expect an overhaul. He is a repair shop. Also, he quoted me $79 or $89 for the Windy II, provided it was not the flyback.

Right on, out of curiosity was your buddy's Windy II chassis from this group buy? Was it repairable? If so, what were the symptoms and what ended up being the issue?

I wouldn't mind an overhaul, but I wouldn't want them to go that far unless the flyback/HOT are tested good.
 
Wouldn't be posting in this thread if it didn't come out of this group buy.

Symptoms were: chirping coupled with horizontal collapse, image rebounding, then repeat for infinity. Issue turns out to be a failing flyback, so therefore is irreparable.
 
FWIW, I reread that gamestone uk thread. His monitor had been replaced with a blast city one. Seems like they were failing even back then.

Ah ok so you and your buddy both have Windy 2 cabs from this group buy and they both have dead flybacks? Or is it one and the same cab?

Yup his looks like it may have been done at the factory though?

You can definitely see from his pics that the neck card cables have been lengthened to make it from the MS2930 chassis to the neck.

Only one cab. My W2 cab/my buddy's W2 cab = same cab. He's not a forum member so I speak as his proxy.

The question here is, why would you buy chassis that are non repairable and have apparently been that way for years.

I have many dead chassis for other manufacture but none for this. This Forr stock pile parts repair and with no schematic for this chassis makes troubleshooting easier on other repairable chassis. Ie blown through resistor... No schematic = no known value, cross examine other chassis, etc. Then parts are known and on hand for other repair.
 
LOL @ Technotronic

As of May 2016, many listings for flyback transformers no longer show price , stock or a purchase option , due to past abuses but mostly because we can no longer afford to give out prices so that competitors can beat the price and basically waste our time and cut us out of the trade we worked so hard to build over the last 10+ years on the internet. We are one of the first original sites that pioneered the availability of hard to find transformers used in crt type monitors all over the world. Regrettably, the hard work has been rewarded by other sites, mostly ones in China , supplying the same parts, and in many cases, specialized items that we helped develop years ago are being offered by anyone with an internet connection and access to a credit card.

The new policy , for lack of a better term is the - KILL CHINA - fee.

If you are a prospective new buyer and need a price and or availability on a listed part before you take a chance at purchase you will need to pay this up front fee to cover losses to China. China has been handed the entire world nearly for free via search engine results, and once we give a price or come up with a new idea here, China either beats the price, or copies the idea and spams it to many of their websites so all the business we generated winds up heading there. Most of China has been blocked from viewing our site and eventually we will have the entire country banned.

UPDATE: We were asking that If you do value the United states and what its done for the world, pay the fee before things worsen however things seem to have turned for the worst and even people who pay the fee still demand refunds, or additional prices on larger quantities as a way to try and make it look like they will return for more business, but never do they follow through with such promises. Any dollar amounts posted here for the fee, were also spammed to China, and the Chinese were demanding that dollar amount we came up with to go to them so they can give tech support on their products, but there is no tech support on any Chinese products on the market so the price for that has been removed, so at this point I would say until there is a global boycott of all products from China, prices or stock check inquiries will not be answered unless an undisclosed amount (determined on a case by case basis) is paid in advance as an act of good faith in the United States of America. Do not call or send in any inquiries regarding parts unless you include understanding this policy and are willing to pay ANY AMOUNT for a surcharge that we specify. No mater how we adjust the policy here on the webpage, it just continues to be joked about and abused, so this will be the final revision and no more updates on the results good or bad will be posted here.

That may be his policy for flybacks not listed for purchase on the site. FWIW, he did confirm availability for me last year for a flyback listed for purchase, no additional fee.
