Title: Got boxes full of goodies today
Post by: alparent on February 27, 2016, 12:54:19 AM
One guy on the DIYStompbox wall getting out of effects building end was selling it all.
The catch, He was in Edmonton and wanted local pickup only.
I'm in Québec......that's far from Edmonton. But I have friends in those parts so they picked it up for me and sent it over.
So 60$ for the deal and about 50$ to ship.

This is what I got .....

Bag of SMD stuff

A couple of bags of  different germaniums
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17624039/Score/17s.JPG)

And so much amp stuff I had to leave it on the floor (transformers, touret boards, yellow caps, orange caps, tube sockets, etc)
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17624039/Score/18s.JPG)

Now I have to sort all this out.......might put a delay in my plans to test the Etcher's Paradise projects. But at the rate Droogie is going...who needs me?

OK got to go back to the pile now.

Lucky bastard. Seriously a great deal, enjoy it  :)

If anyone wants to get out of the hobby around my parts of the wood, I'm happy to pick it up  ;D
