No minimum and generally good prices and service. Or just stop in a Radio Shack and pay more than you could have bought them mailorder&shipped. -Chris |

BTW, my $25+ orders were just so I wouldn't get hit with "HUGE" $5 surcharge on orders less than $25 BTW, Quick search at www.digikey.com for "220uF 16v" gives a bunch of options. For instance (all with single unit min orders) Two different Tantalum caps starting at $9.91 One specialty Polymer cap @ $3.08 Nine electrolytic caps starting @ $0.35 BTW, if your in the US, USPS Priority is cheaper than UPS ground, and a whole heck of a lot faster (two days in my case) Take Care, James Lerch http://lerch.no-ip.com/atm (My telescope construction, Testing, and Coating site) Press on: nothing in the world can take the place of perseverance.

Well, select the part that is not a Reel lot component! Sort for BULK and it will accept the entry for "5" It is really very simple to do, jus follow the directions. BTW the part you listed showed 0 in stock! |

I usually have one big order for a major project, with maybe one small one in advance and one or two afterward. There are always supply items that can be added on to bring the small ones up to the 25 US/32.50 C$ level. Sometimes having that virtual stock can save the customer money- I was able to go through two iterations of ordering samples (the first was auto-cancelled after a week due to a problem with the zip code or something) and get the "free" parts from Asia in the same time frame as the multilayer board samples took, secure in the knowledge that if they didn't show up in time Digikey could provide them overnight for $100.

Hi,
Where is the $2000 minimum order specified? According to the Digikey web site: A $5 handling charge is added to your order if the subtotal is less than $25. 6.5 percent sales tax is added to your order if the shipping address is in Minnesota. International orders (excluding Canada) will have a $6.00 processing fee added to your order. All duties and taxes are the responsibility of the customer. I've heard this $2000 bit before.... John.
