Congratulations! I thought they were out of stock, but someone in the UK was 
looking for schematics to produce another run. Those are (were?) 
significantly cheaper than other forms of multicarts but "only" contain 127 
cartridge games - no RAM expansion, none of the recent homebrews, no memory 
card reader if you require one of those. The original run also came without 
a casing so you would have to supply it yourself if required.

But it is all a matter of priorities and budget, just like many casual Beeb 
owners may stick with a homebuilt mmbeeb userport interface while some of 
the power users on this list can't praise the DataCenter enough. That is the 
beauty of choice, there usually are several options offering partly similar 
functionality at different prices.

Best regards
