Bulk Big Blue's

Yeah, I guess if no one talked about the price of anything in public we wouldn't have
to look at advertisements for anything.
I don't see Burger King hiding their prices from the McDonalds across the street.

Security gets these things custom made. He waits months to get them and then stocks them so guys can typically buy one or two at a time. The guy deserves a couple bucks for the effort. What do you expect him to do? Just come out and say hey you guys can have these at cost... Peter isn't hiding his price. It's boutique service for a niche market, but that's enough economics for this discussion. You seem to have it all figured out.
 
Not really very complicated.

collect pre-payment through PayPal from contributors.
and send them out to their Ship To address once the order arrives.

It sounds we have a volunteer!! I never said it would be complicated. However, it will be a laborious PIA that someone will have to deal with.

Thanks for taking one for the team...time to stock up on shipping tape and bubble wrap. :)
 
Security is a good guy. Buy with confidence. He's an asset to the hobby.

Did I ever tell you about the time I went horseback riding with Security, but there weren't any horses around? Well, Security throws a saddle on my back and rides me around Wyoming for three days. Well, wouldn't you know it, my stamina increases with each day and I develop tremendous leg muscles. So anyway, Security decides to enter me in the Breeders' Cup, right, under the name Turkish Delight. And I'm running in second place, and I'm running and I break my ankle! They're about to shoot me. Then someone from the crowd yells out, God bless him, "Don't shoot him, he's a human."

Enough of your slanderous gay fanfiction... Iggy is the one we ship! Security0001 is too good for this. He's my favorite in all fairness just a great guy.

Did I ever tell you about the time Security0001 took me out to go get a drink with him? We go off looking for a bar and we can't find one. Finally, Security0001 takes me into a vacant lot and says, 'Here we are.' Well, we sat there for a year and a half. Sure enough, someone constructed a bar around us. Well, the day they opened it, we ordered a shot, drank it, and then burnt the place to the ground. Security0001 yelled over the roar of the flames, "Always leave things the way you found them!"

Please stop sniffing that model airplane glue. It's bad for you and will cause brain damage.
 
I don't understand this thread. Big blues are readily available from many suppliers at a honestly good price.
What is this thread going to accomplish?

I was just looking to buy them in bulk. I don't want to pay $15 each for them.
I know they're available.
I know Security is a good guy.

I'm just looking for a bulk source.


There are some sensitive people around here.
 
try contacting great plane electronics or arcade shop and see if they would be interested, 12 isn't exactly a large number of caps to get a bulk deal on to be honest.

you could also try looking at various distributors to see if they have anything in stock such as mouser/digikey. I haven't bothered to look at what their stock levels look like.

By the way, I was thinking about going to Starbucks this morning and dictating to them what I'm willing to pay for their coffee. Screw what market price is for a cup of coffee, I'm going to go there and dictate to them what I'm going to pay. If they wont sell me coffee for $1 less than marked price then I'm going to rebel and plant my own coffee tree and grow my own cheaper. It may take a long time and who knows if my coffee will be any good, but hell with paying full price. :rolleyes:
 
Admist all of the nonsense, I did go ahead and order the big blue capacitors, black casing is all they have and can make. For the sake of rounding figures they are 7.00 each plus shipping. I only did this since I need so many of them and pass the savings along. So, if you don't need 10 or more don't bother. I'm not shipping 1 or 2. After keeping what I need there will be 50 up for grabs.
