s2...payment sent via paypal. Thanks for hookin me up.

The only other amp I've ever had with MM iron was a 1/2 Gilmore Jr. That little guy kicked arse and I'm betting that the MM trannys had something to do with it.

Thanks again...you the man!

Does this mean that S2 will be selling mercury as a dealer? That's good news, it's the best out there without question!

I'm stuck at hammond pricing ...mm too rich for me. How will the plain old s2 ones I see on your store compare? I'm not expecting mercury quality for that price.. but are they decent?

Not sure. The immediate idea is to put them in Cat 5 amps as stock. But I **could** end up selling some of the more popular ones online.

Honestly, I think certain MM models sound great and others are marginal at best. In some cases, mine sound better, Heyboers do too, so do Schumachers, etc. MM isn't the be-all-end-all of transformers, but it is hard to argue with the brand recognition. I don't own a single amp with MM iron, and it isn't because I can't afford it. I've just been happy with other units until brand recognition is forcing my hand. I'm tired of answering the "Why don't you use MM iron?" question constantly.

But I'm not currently selling transformers at all due to metal costs and other supply issues.

OK, we are up to 19 transformers, which is enough for me to close it out and place the order. If anyone else wants to dive in, be sure I get your PayPal before 9AM CST Monday. I am placing the order with MM then unless there are objections.


Cheers!

Another note...

I will ship these overseas, but can't know the shipping rate up front (obviously). We can settle up on the shipping after they are mailed if you like.

We are now up to 23 units (plus chokes).

I think its cool that s2 is doing this! and I can't afford them rite now, even at the 25 price break. The good news is s2 gets this break forever and ever now even on single piece orders - the bad news is the saving's not likely to be passed on after this 1st order, when I get some moolah! any chance I can rain check just one 18 radiospare? I'll spam me plexipalace pals for ya wares mon! :lol:

Not sure. I'll have to see when they get here. Normally, you don't want to skimp on packing and shipping for trannies. Since they are heavy and pointed, they tend to tear each other up in transit unless they are very well packed.

Sooooo.

Does everyone who placed an order now become eligable for the discount (>25Pc. ) for life? Or just you? Or are you going to offer this to everyone now. ???

Notice the discount fter a 25 Pc. Whose name is on this order.

Just a bit informative.
