Woops.. my email has changed over a month ago... Just updated my profile now. Just in case you contacted me through email and wondered why I didn't reply.
I have one but not sure how feasable a trade is with shipping from the US/UK and all? Also, the bottom plate would not be original(see previous post on ebay ripoff[DS-1 MIJ Label] - bought under the guise of it being MIJ), it would probably be a plate from an extra MIT DS-2 I have.
I haven't figured out a way yet. They probably all got silver label Taiwan labels but I don't know the serial number range. I've been tempted to pick up one from every year in the 90s just to examine them and sell them off again.
Wow! I guess I've got a bit of a project for myslef this weekend then. Almost all of my silver label MIT DS-1s are modified in some way though. I think I have one or two in stock form that I can check though.
I'm interested but postage to the US with be about the same as buying one from Ebay so I'll think I'll pass. I'm surpised they used it as recently as 1999 but that makes it easier to get hold of one. Thanks for the info.
That's a shame. I don't think I have any plans for being in the UK any time soon either, unless something should happen to come up on really short notice, which is unlikely. Maybe if you still haven't found one the next time I'm headed over, we can still make the trade.
