I have no idea what a fair price is for an SW60xg, but I have 2 of them. As of last night, the only computer i have with an ISA slot is an amiga with a 286 bridge board in it. I think that it might be time to say "good bye" to one of these (though one was a nightmare to get here from Germany-- the other I bought because I didn't think the other was going to get here from germany Wink ). I think the last time I tested these was about 6 months ago and they both work. I think it would be funny to pop one of these in the amiga and see if I could make it work in DOS mode, but I'm not a big fan of unnecessary computer nightmares Smiley
So, yeah, if you make me an offer and in my mind it seems like it's worth more to sell to you than it is to keep (that's a mushy line and I really don't have any idea where it is... I just don't know what they're "worth").
Also: Assorted 168pin SDR SIMMs... PC-66 - 133 (I think... at least 100). Yeesh... if you need some, let me know and I'll see if I have any of what you need-- don't count on matched pairs. I'm keeping my only matched pair Wink
This is a cool one-- Have an old Slot-1 mother board and want a faster proc for it? Have a BX chipset? Well, i have a 1.4Ghz Celeron on a slot one converter that will work on a 100Mhz bus! I was using it in an old gateway Pentium 2 350 system. That's a sort of jump that you don't see much anymore on a single platform! I think it was around 170 when I bought it... How about $60 OBO? Not sure if these are available anymore or not... Your BIOS might not have the appropriate info to display the processor's speed at boot up-- I think on mind it said "Pentium Pro 1200MHz," but software reported it at 1.4Ghz. anyway.
There's some other junk around, too, but I don't have it mentally cataloged yet. I pulled apart some non-working/failing systems last night during a clean up. Thought I would share my crap with anyone who might want/need it.

Since the DBs go for what, ~$50... and the full ISA cards go for a bit more IIRC.

I'd say a fair reserve price on the bay would be ~$40 and just see what happens.

Well, I was seeing if anyone on here was interested before I decided to deal with ebay. I know that it will end up in an appreciative home here Smiley

I bought my SW60XG brand new through TigerDirect for $60, many, many years ago.  (It was the going price, as I recall.)  I wouldn't imagine it would be worth more than $25 now, tops....though it's worth more to me, since I really like the card.  Smiley

The DB has the advantage of being able to mount it on a PCI sound card, which makes it much more accessible to the potential buyer.
Since the SW60XG is an ISA card, there'll be less demand for it, so the price should probably be lower. I'd say 35-40$ is a much more reasonable price range.
IIRC, Roland SCB-55 cards go for much more than SCC-1s on eBay, and I'm sure it's not just because of the increased polyphony and number of patches.
