No, no ebay.Pakistan. I try not to f_ck wit' sweatshop labor. I got my zip from SCSIforSamplers. I saw his ad on ebay, but it wasn't what I was lookin' for, however I was having no luck finding a scsi zip here where I live. Everything was USB, so I checked his site out and gave him a call. I told him what I needed, and he hooked it up. As far as ebay, I got ripped off once too. It was a dVD that I was buying as a gift, needlessto say it never came. I try not to mess with retailers outside the U.S anymore. I got my 60 on ebay though, and it was def on of the highlights of my year. the guy selling it said that it came with 3.10, and when I got it, it also had scsi and expanded memory. Not to mention that it probably the nicest 60 I've seen. Lucked out on that one!

Ebay is a big risk for things over $100, let's just say I bought 2 MPC 2000 XLs this year and only own one. Some dude in Brooklyn got me for $670 for a 2000 XL w/ 8 outs and built in zip. It was my fault tho. Never do a purchase over $100 unless you use an escrow account. I finally saved up another $800 and copped one used from the Guitar Center. Live and Learn

I was wondering if anyone knows anything about Zip 750 scsi
i peeped the iomega website no word..
it seems scsi is dying out..
for mpc 2000 im using a 250 but i was thinking of geting a internal one for my pc, and chop samples in soundforge, seems zip 250 disks are almost more expensive than zip750 disks, (no joke), cause they are competing with cd-r's they had to upgrade, if anyone finds out about a way to convert usb or firewire to scsi, let me know..
my ideal set up would be external zip750 for mpc and internal zip750 for my pc

"Zip 750 scsi "

Just avoid it. Last word was that there are compatibility issues.

seriously all you gotta do is check the persons feedback and make sure they got a picture from their camera.
