Re: [neonixie-l] Futurlec?
Lot's of experience with them all good. Slow ship times usually around 2 weeks for me in here Oregon, US. I usually use them for bulking up on low supplies but never if I need it fast.

Re: [neonixie-l] Futurlec?
They are slow. But the stuff is what they say it is. I've had two problems, one wrong item and one defective item. Both were cheerfully replaced but it took a lng time to get 'em.

[neonixie-l] Re: Futurlec?
I've also had good luck with Futurlec - but they are slow (possibly the mail service is the reason). They sent me a wrong part, and immediately sent the right part, and did not even want the old wrong part sent back. - Michael On Sunday, February 24, 2013 2:07:25 AM UTC-6, Chuck wrote: Anyone here have any experience ordering from Futurlec?

[neonixie-l] Re: Futurlec?
My limited experience is from when I ordered a bunch of MOSFETs from them. Took about a month delivery to UK. One complain was that they were delivered in a simple plastic bag, no antistatic measures whatsoever. Alex.

One complain was that they were delivered in a simple plastic bag, no antistatic measures whatsoever. Similar experience. Speed: always slow, no point in asking when something will be despatched, as they either don't reply or reply but give something unspecific like soon. Packaging: generally poor. Parts generally arrive wrapped in cellophane, bent pins on SMD parts not unusual, sometimes no labelling. I also don't like the way that they hold credit card details without asking (assuming they still do that.) Otherwise, though, cheap, and as described. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group.

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: GN-4 tubes
I don't think this qualifies as a reasonable price ;-) Nixie prices are really sky-rocketing... Good news that Dalibor is almost there to make his own Nixie tubes :)) Jens There is an ebay auction posted after your message. Six for currently £40. Alex.

Re: [neonixie-l] Futurlec?
Well Futurlec looks to have some pretty decent prices on a few items I have been looking for. 4536 is 36 cents each for (25) or more. Digi-Key's best price for 4536 is 41.32 cents each. 74HCT245 costs 29 cents each at Futurlec, where as Digi-Key's best price is around 37 cents. 4538 costs 40 cents each at Futurlec. Those pop up at various other places for anywhere from 50 cents to a buck each! Futurlec also has some nice 5 volt DPDT relays that have 2 amp contacts and have the standard 16-pin DIP pinout. Those cost around 80 cents each. Best price for them elsewhere is $1.49 each. Futurlec also has some very reasonable shipping costs. They do NOT charge sales tax, either That is one thing I find very annoying about Digi-Key any more. Ever since they started charging sales tax unless one has a tax number I find myself feeling like I got ripped off every time I order from them. Digi-Key is fast and they package the stuff very professionally. For what they charge for everything including tax and shipping they darn well ought to be professional! Maybe I will give Futurlec a try. Sounds like there is at least a fighting chance of actually receiving the goods. Thanks everybody for your insights about this. Hey while I am at it, anyone know where to get XR2206? Jameco lists them at $6.49 each!! Ebay is much cheaper for XR2206, down around $2 each, but there one must deal with most dubious sources from Taiwan and China. Anybody know where a stash of cheap XR2206 ics might be hiding?
