Not at any normal quantity.  The market for DCC conversions is rather
limited...I'd be more than happy to do them on a order basis, but I am not
going to go out of my way to have a stock in hand of converted motors.

and I have offered this before- I just don't think that people are willing to
pay the price required. $20 for the motor, $25 for the decoder + something for
my time (plus the risk of a occasional fried decoder...) would bring them to
~55-60 US/each.

If people are interested at that price point, feel free to Email me- I'd be
happy to discuss terms.
