Dunno, but I like to salvage the electronics out of

diodes, transistors, capacitors and inductors that just *might* be
useful for something else--someday. So I've got a pile of the
innards.
Transformer cores and bobbins are often very handy (as are ferrite
toroids). I've been known to use them to wind custom inductors for
projects (especially switchmode power supplies). Great for 1-offs.
Speaking of which, I could do with a couple of RM-cores, clips and
winding bobbins... used my last one a few weeks ago.
