Is there any way to buy on Ebay "UK" from abroad?
I think it looks good, but "Postage: May not post to Spain"

The power supply is used, not ex-demo.
Will it be a good choice?

by **Burgerman** » 13 Apr 2018, 08:11

Yes thats what mine said. It will be new or ex demo, and will be sold from the "back door"... I would buy.

Send them an ebay message and just ask them if they will post to Spain. If they don't I might buy it myself.

by **Burgerman** » 13 Apr 2018, 15:09

There come up every 4 to 6 months at best. So soon snapped up. So whovever wants it better get on with it! It will be unmarked, boxed as new, and with never used cable. I have bought a few. Same seller, from that company. They are ones that reps carry to show customers I think.

by **Dan** » 13 Apr 2018, 20:32

Well its still for sale. If martin007 does not want it I might buy it as a backup.

by **martin007** » 13 Apr 2018, 22:34

I will send an email to the seller to ask if he can send it to Spain.

Do you have a Paypal account?

Under contact seller then select postage it says

"Do you offer international postage?
This seller doesn't offer international postage."
But who knows, they might post if you have a good account.

I do but I tend to use a credit card on ebay.

by **martin007** » 13 Apr 2018, 23:23

If the seller does not ship to Spain, do you say that you could send it to me?
I would pay you for Paypal.

I live in Northern Ireland so they always take the piss and charge extra for postage to here. I bet the postage will be about £18 then the postage to Spain.

I have sent them a message asking what the postage will be to my postcode but I don't think I will get a reply until Monday.

Postage to Spain will not be cheap either. Using parcelforce 2KG 40cm x 40cm x 40cm with only £100 insurance.

by **Burgerman** » 13 Apr 2018, 23:56

Its not worth it. Find a supply closer.

by **martin007** » 14 Apr 2018, 00:02

I propose one thing to you.

Well its still for sale. If martin007 does not want it I might buy it as a backup.

You buy the power supply now.
If we find a (cheap) shipping form to Spain, I will pay you the source + shipping.
Otherwise you can keep the power supply.

OK?
You understand me?

????????????????????

by **Dan** » 14 Apr 2018, 00:07

I think Burgerman is saying the extra costs involved is not worth it for the supply. You might get cheaper elsewhere.
I will buy it on Monday if its still there. But I can see the total cost for the supply plus postage to me then postage to Spain coming to somewhere under €500.

by **martin007** » 14 Apr 2018, 00:12

229 GBP = 264.5 € + Shipping

But I can see the total cost for the supply plus postage to me then postage to Spain coming to somewhere under €500.

500 €?

by **Dan** » 14 Apr 2018, 00:26

oops
£230 for supply
£20 postage to me
£70 postage to you (this is a guess based on 2KG)
£320 = €370

by **Burgerman** » 14 Apr 2018, 00:55

The thing is heavy! The box and packaging is 1kg. The power supply may 8kg at a guess?

by **Burgerman** » 14 Apr 2018, 00:59

Found:

SM3040. PSU, BENCH, 40A; Power Supply Output Type:Adjustable; No. of Outputs:1; Output Voltage:30V; Output Current:40A; Power Ra... Datasheet ... Supply Type:Bench; Supply Voltage:220V; Supply Voltage Max:240V; Supply Voltage Min:110V; Supply Voltage Typ:110V AC / 220V AC; Weight Min:7kg

So 1kg box and packaging plus cable, and 7kg supply. So 8kg or 18lb. The thing is full of bricks!

@martin007: At the beginning, you could pick a cheap power supply converted from an used server PSU (720W or more). Its price should be less than $100. Just use 12V instead of 24V, everything would work fine with PL8. In the mean time, you can continue hunting a pro power supply from a more convenient ebay seller.

by **martin007** » 14 Apr 2018, 15:49

I have looked for an alternative.

What do you think?

Any problem?

by **Burgerman** » 14 Apr 2018, 19:57

There has been some reliability issues with those. You may be fine.

In what sense?

by **martin007** » 14 Apr 2018, 23:43

I am thinking of buying this power supply.

What do you think Burgerman?

P.S. In another store it costs 300 €

by **martin007** » 15 Apr 2018, 00:38

Other.

20A not enough power. Its a heavy linear power supply rather than switch mode. 17kg... And less efficient.

by **martin007** » 15 Apr 2018, 18:11

What a complex it is.

I will look for a switched mode power supply.

* Now I know that switched-mode power supplies are more efficient.

by **martin007** » 15 Apr 2018, 19:40

Is this a switched mode power supply?

60v x 60A = 3600W (WATTS) ???

Something not correct!
