** You are a liar.

There are no less than SIX different stereo, 1/4 inch, sockets in the Jaycar catalogue.


Prices start at $2 each.


i wanted a basic 3 way switch and they dont carry them...
** They have rotary 3 pos. switches in 1 to 4 poles for $3.35 each.

Try pulling your head out of your arse.

Try taking your medication!

And you've obviously not been there.

The store zz refers to is, I assume, the one on Springvale Road. I used to work just around the corner and was most excited upon starting work there to notice said store.

After all, I grew up on DSE being all about electronics, RIE was the next stop in the City and then Jaycar was next (I was a Geelong boy .. the city was a long way away!)

Now Woolworths owns DSE, DSE has bought Tandy, but has turned into Tandy and even Jaycar, though their catalog be many pages, carries a very small range in their Springvale Road store. I was most dissapointed.

Sure, it might be in the catalog, but that means nothing. The Prius is available from my local Toyota dealer (it's on the website and in the window and I assume they have a brochure too) but if I want one there's a six month wait. Catalogs mean nothing.

Before you start spouting trollish libel, gather all evidence.

Back the the original question, zz, I can't help you, but hope someone can. In fact, I'd love to see a list of GOOD component suppliers from right accross town compiled. They MUST exist .. surely!

The person that abused you is a well known, net stalking Troll looking for anyone he can to vent his personality disorder on. Be warned and keep clear of him he is a total waste of space and an oxygen thief. If you want any proof of what a lowlife this person is just do a name search for him in aus.hi-fi, aus.legal and rec.audio.tubes.

Cheers TT

Woof, Woof, Woof.

You just know anything I say will invoke a predictable reaction from the Pavlov's Dog of the newsgroups. :)

If you're up that way try TECS in Blackburn. Can't recall the address off-hand.

Cheers.

The Blackburn store has closed :(
