No, but due to a very good business connection I'm able to get them at a discount.
In the meantime I have claimed a fraud against him.
I have no answer back from PayPal yet.
In the meantime I have made a instruction manual for these fantastic ZIF / IDE adapter.

I just checked that out and found that the free option was available (as well as a faster "premium" option). The file download only took seconds with the free option.
Thanks, Peter, for making that instruction manual. Not knowing how to insert the ZIF connector properly, I broke a hard drive and had to order another one. (I shoved too hard.) Expensive mistake!

Here's some more links and info for the tiny
libmart.co.kr adapter
:
Product Name: LIB ZENDER
Model Number: AN-ZIF219
I bought several from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280416830517
If the link goes dead, search for:
ZIF HDD,SSD to 1.8 inch TOSHIBA type converter,zender
The seller:
http://myworld.ebay.com/libmartcom/
For reference:
http://corkhead.com/wp/?p=6
I've been using one for about 3 months now on a Samsung HS082HB 80GB in an X5. The part that fits into the zif connector is not a kapton or mylar flat printed circuit (like most zif cables), but appears to be ordinary FR4 fiberglass PCB material, just really really thin FR4. As such it appears quite fragile. So I put a dab of 5 minute epoxy on the adapter housing ends, just a tiny amount to give additional support, but not too much that I can't get it apart later if need be. And yes I can confirm that the overall length is the same as the old Toshibas.

Hi snaut, I'm not very happy with the comment you made in the forum.
I always answer my mails and I'm sad to hear that you did not receive the ZIF adapter ! Please get in touch with me again asap because I'll be on holidays from 09.04. - 29.04.2011
I have sold many adapters to Rockbox and Misticriver Forums members without any problems.
I have just find out that snaut lives in Russia and I have sold 2 adapters to Russia that never arrived due to poor postal delivery service within Russia.
Result: I WILL NO LONGER TAKE ORDERS FROM RUSSIA !

I just received my second adapter from koala007 within two weeks of my sending payment. I know I'm just a faceless bloke vouching for another faceless bloke, but I'm happy with the adapter and the service.
Cheers, mate!

I too have ordered and received these adaptors twice from koala007, and have been happy with his prompt and reliable service.

The "chiseler" on ebay is the vendor (Libmart) in South Korea !
There is no cheaper way to buy them these days.
In the past I bought them directly from the vendor in bulk to cut shipping costs and also the price.
Good luck to all.
