Synhouse has customers in 42 countries.

Synhouse ships to your country and has since before eBay existed.

If you are looking at a small/normal item in the Synhouse eBay listings and seeing no shipping options to your area or seeing a notice that says the seller doesn't ship to your address, this is incorrect. I've been shipping to Australia, England, etc. since 1990, five years before eBay even existed, and eBay has deleted ALL the shipping options and prices I've spent many hours setting up, in order to enable eBay International Shipping, and then tells people in the most commonly shipped to countries that shipping is not available there. This is fake and idiotic; eBay had already been shipping there with the eBay Global Shipping Program for a few years, now says they don't with eBay International Shipping AND deleted my own shipping options without my permission or knowledge, when it could have and should have been left in place as an option because at least it WORKS and eBay doesn't know what they are doing.

This goes WAY back to 2017 with people in New Zealand (one of the most commonly shipped to Synhouse countries) telling me that I don't ship there, and 1) multiple calls to eBay didn't solve it, 2) they sometimes said they solved it but didn't, and 3) said "Uhm, wait 24 hours and it will be working.", which is how eBay gets you off the phone. And I could never get that New Zealand problem solved. The new problem since early 2023 is eBay deleting my own shipping options in order to put theirs in, then theirs tells people no, the seller doesn't ship there, but I CAN manually set up a shipping method (usually with Synhouse it's one price each for USA, Canada, Asia/Australia, and the rest of the world.

Now I'm getting messages like these:

5/16/2023: Hi, Wondering how much shipping would be to Canada, postal code T2N 2P7. Thanks!
Can you enable the ebay international shipping option for me? I am very interested.
1/1/2024: Hi there can you post to London uk and how much would postage be?
Hi how much would postage be to London England
Thanks for your reply. Im trying to check out but im get the message saying seller doesn't ship to your address. Please advise as i really need the new faceplate.
1/30/2024: Hello synhouse, I have a T8 and would like to buy your Optical-Emitter-Set just to make sure to have it in the future. Is there a reason you don't ship to Germany?

If you see that any small/normal Synhouse item does not ship to you/your area, this is FAKE and wrong, please send an eBay message to tell me and I can manually enter shipping to your area AGAIN.

Sorry for this incompetent platform I've been struggling with for 25 years now...

This is a weird thing, I don't know if anyone wants it, but I'll offer them for now at a good price.

This is a full set of 8 new/NOS replacement caps for the SP1200.

These are not standard fat caps from SP1200s, they are very rare shiny ones of a type that were never used on the SP1200, but from the same company that supplied the more commonly seen fat caps.

One of the photos in this eBay listings shows one of these next to a standard fat cap on one of my SP1200s, so you can see the difference.

The normal ones have a leather/pebble-grained textured on the grabbing surface, but these have a shiny surface, the same shiny surface appearance as you would see on the skinny caps used on the Emulator, Drumulator, Emulator II, SP-12, and older 1987 gray SP1200 (as well as some, but not all, of the later 1990s black reissue SP1200s).

In the 1980s and 1990s, most companies that supplied knobs and caps to the electronics trade had just a few basic styles, but each style one could be ordered with options, such as outer color (black, red, etc), indicator line color (white, yellow, etc.), surface treatment (shiny, pebble-grained, etc.), shaft fitting (6 mm D, 6 mm American D, 18 teeth, etc.), and sometimes size (such as the Minimoog knobs that were made in many sizes).

This one for sale here is an alternate surface version from the same company that made the particular part that was supplied to the production of some of the SP1200s.

These are new/NOS, unused, never used, never installed on a machine, NEVER even pushed onto a slider shaft (more advice about that below), they only have very, very light scuffs on a few of them due to rubbing together in bags since they were new.

I think these are the best looking drum machine slider caps of all time, but that's just my opinion.

Replacement tips and techniques from my decades of working with these:

To install, push the slider cap on as far as it will possibly go.

Once you have placed this brand new slider cap on the slider shaft, DON'T take it off and try it on every other machine you have just for fun. It works a little like the crush sleeve that holds the shifter knob on your car (if you're not a sissy and you have a shifter), there's some extra material in there that smashes onto the shaft the FIRST time. If you take it off, it will be somewhat looser the second time. This is why I didn't put these new caps on the shafts just to take the eBay photos, I know better. Also note that years on the slider shaft stretches them out slightly, so these won't be loose like the old ones (but they will if you put them on and take them off a lot of times, so don't).

So if you NEED to have them off to do some service on your machine, then go on and do that first.

There is a minimum shipping price for all of my small components and a different minimum for a very low value item or for something $50 or more. However, I can ship almost any number of parts for the international shipping that it shows for most of those items. So if you want, for example, an SP1200 overlay and some knobs and some switches, or knobs and switches and potentiometers or whatever, just let me know IN ADVANCE and I will set up a special listing for you so that you will only pay the shipping once. This is if you tell me IN ADVANCE, not if you ask for it later because any shipping money paid has already been docked 4.9% by PayPal and another 10% by eBay and that money is not coming back. Yes, eBay takes 10% of the stated shipping charge since 2011, and PayPal has always taken 4.9% of that money for international and 3% for domestic. So let me know in advance and I can set it up so that you can save a lot of money by buying and shipping the parts together.

I can also set up special listings for different quantities of items sometimes. Usually the price is the same per item but I can set it up and that saves a lot of money on shipping.

Synhouse accepts PayPal. Additionally, Synhouse has accepted payments directly by Visa, Mastercard, and American Express for 19 years now.
