 > I got 2x6 samples of switches from them; fast shipping (international in a couple of days), great parts - and they deal in passives too; note that sometimes (my case) the order was filled only partially, and that not all parts are available for sampling (August 2013') - vaxquis > I got 2x6 samples of switches from them; fast shipping (international in a couple of days), great parts - and they deal in passives too; note that sometimes (my case) the order was filled only partially, and that not all parts are available for sampling (August 2013') - vaxquis

 +> These guys are great. I've ordered a couple of connectors and USB cables from them and they all shipped the next day with FedEx next day air.
