Bought a box of 10,000 IN4148 diodes for 2.50 including postage. ;-)


And you can now sell 9,950 diodes for £3.50 ;-)


Heh heh. It's a fact that large quantities of components - even tiny ones
like transistors etc - usually go for *less* than 'manageable' ones like
say 50 or so.

I've now got more of the common transistors and regulators etc than I'm
ever likely to use.

Then sell the excess on E-Bay. :-)
