Thanks AlphaZeta. I thought dipmicro only has an ebay store. Their own site is more orgainzed. I bought from their ebay store once. Good stuff for cheap price. Fast shipping also. They're in Canada (right?) but my package was shipped from US. Guess they just hop in a car and brought their packaged to the US side of Niagara Falls and shipped them. Waiting for my second shipment from them.

cr0sh:  When I was stationed in San Diego there was a warehouse that had scrap electronics, mostly military stuff.  It was really cool, never in my life have I ever seen so many vacuum tubes in one place!  Really old stuff, like giant fireproof resistors (darn near the size of your pinkie).  It was really neat, but I never had the heart to rip apart any of the old gear.
