I saw these browsing around eBay today. IIRC, these are used on
most of the S100 floppy controllers, are they not? I don't know how a
good a deal this is, or the availablity though other channels, but
thought I'd pass them on.

Rumor has it that J.C. Wren may have mentioned these words:

If you don't need 38 of 'em, www.bgmicro.com has 'em fer sale at $4.49 each.
At the auction, you're spending $3.63 each, just for comparison.

Er, I get $4.16 each (including the $20 shipping charge). That's
getting close to the bgmicro cost (though I don't know what they
would want for shipping).

Some, and when it is, they tell you.
Other than some of their EPROMS, I think most of the chips they carry are NOS.

Not in my experience. Surplus, yes -- pulls, no.
I've bought lots of fuses and odd transistors from them
without problem.

That's been my experience too - I bought some uPD765 FDCs (actually Rockwell
R6765s, but effectively the same chip) from them a while back. No trace of
damage to the pins, no solder on them, still the same length they were when
the chips left the factory, and still splayed out.
Speaking of the 765s, I still need to build an MFM data separator...
Later.
