If any users here are interested in Great Valley Products (GVP) boards,
drives, controllers, etc., for the Amiga 500 or 2000, know that I'm a
registered reseller and will happily beat most of the prices you'll find in
the magazines for the same stuff.
The situation is that I'm an amiga fan myself working for a distributor of
computer clones, and that I do the GVP thing as a sideline from home. As I'm
not Donald Trump and have to pay for this merchandise before getting it, I
require payment in full before shipping to you: meaning, no C.O.D. and no
credit cards. Certified/Bank Check or Money Order will get you immediate
follow-through and delivery. Standard check will mean having to wait until
it's cleared with the bank.
Don't worry - it's worth it. I find that many of the ads I see in the
magazines show the GVP stuff exactly at GVP's Suggested Retail - others have
the audacity to price the stuff even higher!
I have no real overhead, so I'm just looking to make a reasonable profit off
of what I sell. If you want to check my status as a registered reseller,
call GVP at 215-889-9411 and speak to Greg or Bart in sales (they'll give you
Suggested Retail if you ask them for a price, by the way).
My home business line is (201) 736-3298. As I'm working full-time days and
into the evenings on installations, just leave a message on the tape machine
giving me info as to what you're looking for. Leave both day-time and
evening phone numbers so I can call you and verify the order. If you want to
call my bbs and leave FEEDBACK, call (201) 736-4710 at 1200 or 2400 baud 24
hours daily (FLUX CAPACITOR BBS).
If you want to send MAIL over the system here that will be forwarded to me,
address it to uunet!tronsbox!dsoft!sauron and the SysOp of THE DRAGON'S WEYR
will make sure I get it.

That's it. New Jersey residents add 6% sales tax. As all items must first
be shipped to me before I ship to you, I'll charge a flat rate $10.00
shipping charge on each item ordered instead of going crazy figuring each one
out individually. Sometimes I'll win, sometimes I'll lose by a dollar or
two... no big deal. The savings will be worth it to you. Typical wait will
be a week if the item is in stock. If GVP is out of stock on an item, you
will be informed before you order -- in those cases, we can put you on a
waiting list if you wish.
