Since you're Sir-German, I guess you're in Germany... then you can buy from ebay.de, there's one superbuster listed right now, just search for "amiga buster" and you will find it. I've bought from that seller before (tonisalza), he's very reliable and you can get the Superbuster for less than 17 euro from him.
 
Good luck,

And as I live in the Netherlands, which shares a border with Germany, I will receive my Super Buster from Vesalia in a couple of days, finally completing all chip upgrades on my A3000... /me is a happy camper!

Same here... also in NL and ordered a SuperBuster from Vesalia, shipped yesterday ;-)

Anybody have any good pointers for a dmac-04 or ZIP ram?

I bought mine years ago from Vesalia. Was quite pricey but the service was good and alternative sources hard to find.

Got a spare I've never used - [calculating the current $ rate] how about $29, shipping as standard letter included?

Are you sure you need a Buster11 ? It won't work with a Deneb and another DMA card (scsi controlers like FastLane and A4091).
Some cards do require a Buster11 though...

I still think someone should have the balls to make a new Buster :)

Totally incorrect.....

Buster 11 might have issues with Deneb, but only if you have the Deneb using DMA, so turn it off & set Deneb to use ZII mode. Super Buster 11 does not have any issues with the Fastlane or the A4091 C= SCSI card. The Z3 fastlane will work with all revisions of Buster Chip & the A4091 will not work without a Super Buster 11 fitted.

The Super Buster Chip manages the ZORRO III bus Arbitration & all Buster revisions were riddled with bugs causing problems in ZORRO III transfers. Super Buster 11 is the best revision to have fitted in any A4KD/T.

The deneb card requires either a Rev 9 or 11 Super Buster to work. However, if you have SCSI in your Amiga, you'll need to set the Deneb to ZII mode & drop the DMA function. Deneb can not use DMA if you have other cards in your Amiga using DMA. The Deneb is a poor USB solution for any Amiga, because the Amiga relies heavily on it's multi-channel DMA. Your modern day Pee Cee's only have 1 DMA Channel which is shared, causing a serious bottleneck  on the system.

Slightly incorrect as well:
- better use Deneb in Z3 mode but with PIO
- SCSI on an accelerator board is uneffected
- the Deneb is only a poor USB solution in comparison to standard PC platforms, on the Amiga it's the best performing solution - you can't get better than the system you're running on
