- Yes - I ordered a big bunch of TOKO coils (for mains carrier comms)
- from these guys, from New Zealand and :
- 1 : their delivery time was great (just over a week)
- 2 : their bulk discount was excellent
- 3 : their system of calculating postage (a percentage of order price)
- sucked, because these were tiny lightweight components - next time
- i'll order power transformers (tee hee)
- 4 : they take visa (cuts the order->delivery time heaps)
-
- altogether a good deal, no complaints.
- cheers
- Mike.
