Used RIFA Capacitors for Sale

[MicroCoreLabs]

Did someone re-cap your computer or monitor, robbing you of the vintage computer experience of a RIFA blowing up and releasing the magic smoke?

Well, now is your chance to make it right!

I am selling two used RIFA filter capacitors from an IBM 5154 EGA monitor which are over 40 years old. Virtually guaranteed to blow up sometime soon.

These things practically never come up for sale which, in my mind, makes them ultra-rare.

$3,000 obo.

Do they come with a warranty ?

I would trade a half-eaten Big Mac circa 2024 with original box but I'm sure international food regulations would nix it getting to you.

Someone call up TexElec and have them create a "Bad Smell RIFA Board" to sell alongside their "Bad Idea Varta Board."

We can't have these still perfectly good and usable RIFA caps go to waste!

If I get mad I will ask my share in Lliures Catalanes!
