Seeking LaserJet IIISi I/O card

Hi
 I've seen these come up about once every month
or so in eBay. I bought a duplexer for my 3si and
an envelope feeder, on eBay. You just need to keep a search
going, every few days. I'm sure you'll find one.
 I'd originally bought a parallel/serial card when
I bought mine, surplus, because of the same problem.
At the time, I bought it from a printer repair store.
It cost almost $200. Later ( about 2 years ) the card
failed. I located one on eBay for about $25, I was
back on the air.
