I'm going to start another parts order process called "Parts For Beer",
to augment Eric's excellent group order. Here are the main features....
0: Limited to Paul's personal parts inventory. I will soon publish a list.
1: Very low pricing! (approx Digikey's thousands quantity)
2: Small fixed quantities (4 inch strips, which is usually 25 pieces)
3: No shipping charge.
4: I label the parts for you.
5: Ordering all the way up to a few hours before the Dorkbot meeting!
6: Payment options: beer or cash. Beer is preferred.
There is no minimum, though a "full beer" total (or coordinating with
others to sum up to a beer) will be greatly appreciated!
My list will mostly be generic parts like resistors, capacitors,
inductors, diodes and small transistors, of course only in certain sizes
and values. But it does cover a lot of the ordinary parts, so when you
need a small number of 10K 0805 resistors, you can get a small strip for
25 cents rather than more than you need from Digikey for over a dollar,
or only the exact quantity, also over a dollar due to their high prices
at such low quantity.
This is intended for small quantity only. If you need hundreds or
thousands, please get them from Digikey.
