The guy who was offering the 'too good to be true' prices on the decapping sold his company and lost / kept most of the chips that had been sent to him.
Even when he did some work for MAME, he didn't really do anything that interesting, or fully handle any chips as exotic as the Toaplan MCUs, just common things, many of which he broke in the process too, or where the dumps were bad and we had to hand fix them.
The guys doing work for the non-arcade side of the project are doing a FAR better job than any of Guru's contacts ever did, but as they're more honest than Guru they'll not try and get you to send hundreds of chips they can't deal with.
