Can't seem to find any (at a less than extortionate price)
Guess this Liteon spoofing is taking the demand levels high.
Anyone have any please LMK (PM me)
Cheers

you can pick up a new samsung off ebay for about £30. Not as good as the Benq but better than the rest out there. Burn one game and you've paid for the drive plus a tenner profit.

Pretty sure they're not making the BenQ any more, so they're impossible to get hold of now.

Samsung MS28 brand new are pretty cheap on dealextreme or let me know if you're wanting 10+ and I can put you in touch with a UK wholesaler.

They play GTA properly ;)

Also, MS could have used SS.bin handling for banings before but didnt, so I wouldnt worry 'too' much

iXtreme 1.5 cant be too far away.

Cheers RB,
I always, have a hard time worrying about getting stung by customs with dealextreme.
I've used em for small items, but for say 10 drives or more the box would be larger, last thing you want is some import/export bod ripping open and holding your parcel to ransom.
Worth bearing in mind though if I ever get stumped.
