Hi,
I have several thousand 4.7 uF 35v gumdrop tantalum caps we don't need any more. Anybody want some?
John

Sure. I'll pay postage for a bunch of them.
Why on earth would you stock several thousand of anything?
** Maybe to get a few of them that actually work OK ;-)

Not necessary. Just email me your address.

Left over from a project, value changed!
We do, at present, have well over a million parts in stock.

You have an app. using tantalums, where the value makes that much difference? If I were doing any TTL prototyping these days, I'd ask for a handful or so, but I'm not, so the best use I could come up with at the moment is to fill up that empty drawer in my Akro-Mils parts cabinet. :-)
Thanks! Rich
But seriously, if anybody needs a few of something, that's no problem. I suppose I could publish the inventory list...
A lot of this stuff has to be bought by the reel, 1000 or more often
3000 pieces, so we often have a several-lifetimes supply.John
Well I don't wish to appear greedy, but yeah, put me down for 990,000 of them, John. ;-)

You don't mean over a million 4.7uF gumdrops?
Thanks,

In another forum a chap was trying to promote the idea of utilizing all those spare bits that we all have lying around by putting the available part of our inventories on line in some kind of database. It's an interesting concept, though I'm not sure it's practical.

What a splendidly generous chap!
Go on, John. "Publish and be damned" as they say. No good deed ever goes unpunished, IME. I hope you find otherwise!
