WTB: 128MB SIMM (72 pin) for Blizzard 1230

I've been checking ebay periodically for over a year, no luck. Seen some 128MBs that are pretty cheap, but too thick. I'd really like to get this machine up to the max RAM it can handle.
Anybody have one they'd part with, or know of a source?

Oh, nice! Doesn't show on the US ebay. Thanks! I'm a little concerned about the statements that you need to lift your Amiga and use a rubber band to make them fit, so I'll try searching for some others on European ebay... otherwise maybe I'll give it a try.

Yeah I bought one. If it isnt a perfect fit, it should at least work until I can find a better one. I don't mind hacking it in with a rubber band, as long as there's no risk of it damaging the hardware by bending it etc.

It doesn't even come CLOSE to fitting, unless I want to rip the CPU off the accelerator... which would be sort of pointless. I suppose you could also try to jam it in there with a hammer, which would produce the same result of having a worthless accelerator. God dammit.
Anybody want to buy a worthless piece of crap SIMM before I turn it into a keychain or throw it in the trash?

That second one looks like the exact same SIMM for about 4 times the price. Think I'll pass.

If I had the SCSI kit I could just put in another 64MB SIMM (which I have about 20 of in a bag) and I'd be happy with that. 128MB on an A1200 is more than enough for anything I'm doing. Unfortunately I've never seen the SCSI kit for sale.
