Well now I've done it.I bought pretty much the entire remaining inventory from a electronics manufacturing plant. There was a total of approxmiately 15 pallets. These pallets were made up of all devices found on circuit boards. I have literally 10's of thousands of IC's, 100's of thousands of resistors, a few thousand capacitors, hundreds of DIP switches, IC sockets, etc. Believe me when I tell you that it is no fun sorting hundreds of tubes of IC's. Especially when the plugs keep falling out and now you have a pile of IC's in the bottom of the box. So far I have found a couple of pounds of epoxy coated Tantalum caps.
And wouldn't you know the first box of IC tubes I went through I found two tubes of gold capped w/gold legs ceramic IC's. Hundreds of tubes later, they were still the only ones I had.
I believe it safe to say that I'll know more than I ever wanted to about these components by the time I get done selling or trying to sell them on Ebay. Can I interest anyone in a bag of 11,800 1.2 ohm, 1/4 w resistors? Got to get back to listing. Free listing event expires at midnight tonight.
