I got my MN3008 from Paul @ diyguitarpedals.au
Price is very fair, the chips are genuine and tested and shipping is fast, given he's in Australia.

So....., a BBD chip bought from some dude off Ebay? And its not working? To be honest I'd be more surprised if it had actually worked. There's a lesson to be learned here. Do not be temped by cheap out of production/rare parts. If it's too good to be true it usually is.

Agreed. Although you can get legit chips from china every once in a while, the success rate is only about 40% in my experience. That number goes down the more popular the chip is.

(thanks m-kresol)

With Xvive bbds and sot23 adapters, there is no need to fall into this trap anymore.
