Re: Ordering parts without outrageous shipping costs
|
Kurt,? I like . They stock modern parts, and will ship via USPS. My last order of mostly surface mount parts shipped for less than $4. I can always find stuff to add to my cart to help me justify the four bucks shipping.
I think we're all spoiled by the cheap shipping we can get from Asia. I am still amazed that I can buy something for $0.99 and get it shipped to me, albeit slowly, for free from halfway around the world.? Regards, Mike M. KU4QO

? Well I was attempting to make the L5 inductor (100 micro Henry across pins 7 & 20)? mod when I apparently overheated it having it to fall apart... one of many boneheaded maneuvers on my part.? Last night I went to several on-line parts places only to find state side shipping costs on items less than $1 can go upwards of $10.? THAT"S CRAZY!? I can see spending $1-$2 which is still high for 5 axial inductors.??
Where do you order your parts from?? Is there a cheaper place I might be missing?
