Ebay [US]: MITSUBISHI CM300 1200V-300A IGBT (30$ a piece)

[Mads Barnkob]

This is not my listing, but wanted to tell our US users about fair priced bricks being available. There is currently 19 for sale.

For reference, these are the exact same bricks (not from that seller though) I'm using for my 160mm coil, which operates at ~800-1000A, ~75kHz and >2m streamer length.

Edit: price dropped to $27, modified thread title

Another good offer on CM300 for US residents! 30$ each.

No affiliates with seller, just wanted to share: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/333247443876?ul_noapp=true

A insane good offer on CM300s!

Not mine, just found it on US ebay and I got no need/import tax etc.

4 pieces at 12$ each! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/362709879903?ul_noapp=true

And finally sold for $5/each + shipping

Yeah, I saw he dumped it from 12, to 8 to 5. He wanted 75$ in shipping to Denmark, so I let it be

Despite $5/ea, he still wanted $27 shipping in the US for 4 of them even after asking for a reduced shipping price. USPS shipping calculator says it should have been closer to $14. I let it slide. They showed up today, "USPS parcel select," with no anti-static protection, basically loose in the box with nothing but some plastic bags as "padding". Most of the gate connection tabs were bent over. They check out fine with a DMM, but only time will tell.

So buyer beware: mike5812 is maybe not the best seller to purchase sensitive electronics from.

I also went to buy 4 of them. He wanted $120aud shipping to Australia. I don't mind the seller making some money on shipping, but charging double of what a courier company says is insane.
