Repair Kits for DIY'ers??

Well, here's where I'm at for today... I've been tweaking the numbers a bit to try and give you guys the most value for your money.

I'm thinking the first kit would consist of some or ALL of the following:
17pcs 2101 RAM (9101/2101)
10pcs 2111 RAM
10pcs 2114 RAM
50pcs 4027 RAM
25pcs 4116 RAM
25pcs 4164 RAM
21pcs 4416 RAM
25pcs 4517 RAM
15pcs 5280 RAM (2107 Equiv)
5pcs 6116 RAM
10pcs 6810 RAM
25pcs 2125 RAM (house marked)
5pcs 2149 RAM
5pcs 9128 RAM
10pcs 82S25 RAM

Second kit would consist of some or ALL of the following:
9pcs AY-3-8910 Sound Chip
5pcs TMS5200NL Speech Chip
5pcs TMS5220CNL Speech Chip
5pcs Z80-CTC
5pcs Z80A-CTC
6pcs TMS2532A EPROM
5pcs X2804 NOVRAM
9pcs 8080 CPU (9080/8080)
5pcs ADC0804 A-to-D Converter
5pcs ER2055 NOVRAM
5pcs MK4801 RAM
12pcs MC1495L
4pcs LF13201
4pcs TL084

Obviously, a lot of CPU part numbers are missing. I'm completely out of 6500, 6800 series and Z80 cpu's... so these probably won't be included in ANY of my kits anytime soon. Not until I find a smokin' deal on some stock from one of my suppliers.

Prices have not been determined yet, but I'd like to try and figure out the numbers so I can provide $50/$100 kits. This way, it will be as close to rock bottom as you guys can get. These are preliminary numbers (both in qty and part numbers themselves). This is an open discussion, so let me know which numbers I need to work on. We can mix and match from any lines. Take a moment to provide your thoughts on the subject!!

Most of what I have is perfect for Atari repairs, though there are some bally/midway repairs which can be handled from these parts, as well. The 8080 and 5280 are especially good for Space Invaders and others on the same platform. I used to work on Atari across the board, as well as Taito, Williams, Bally/Midway, Universal, etc. So, most of what I have stocked covered even the most hairy repairs on all of those platforms.

I'm thinking of putting together at least 20 kits, maybe up to 100 kits.....but I don't know if there's that much demand. I won't do this until we've fully discussed the above proposed part lists, though.
