> if anyone wants it the first $500 would take it.
Heh. If you were to pull up at my doorstep in Ottawa and make that
offer, I'd take you up on it. :-/
I don't think any of them want anymore 74 series
stuff.
The dealers, maybe not.
There is no demand and the Chinese will sell you 1000
of whatever for
a dollar.
Yeah...but will they sell me 20 of each of 50 different parts for a
dollar? I have little use for 1000 of any single part. (Well, any TTL
part. I bought 1000 of some things - 1N914, 2N3904, 2N3906, and five
(I think) resistor values that I use heavily. Those actually cost me
more like $10 per thousand, but I wasn't buying them direct from a
Chinese manufacturer.)
That's why I'm tempted by that vanful of parts: variety. But they're
of basically no use to me in Orange County.
There is demand. Just not enough to interest most dealers.
