I wonder if these are from a group buy not long ago, where someone got a
manufacturer to gin up a lot of them (minimum order was something like
1,000).
They were quite common at one point. I hacked the first one I needed but
later had no problem buying them. This was before eBay but typically they
were available at computer fairs, which could be found in every town on a
sunday selling floppy discs, cables, Linux CD sets and possibly dodgy
software.
