TI isn't interested in 1-2,000 piece one time buy. I was referred to a distributor.

Anyone want to volunteer?

Bob,


I can do it if no one else comes forward.

Do the OPA need to put them in electrostatic bags?

Thanks gengis.

Yes, they need anti-static bags, and an anti static workplace for packing.

Earlier someone suggested wrapping the anti static tubes they come in with aluminum foil for shipping. Is this acceptable?

Bob,

That is not problem. Foil are pretty cheap.


So, after putting the OPA into anti-static bag, then wrap in foil. Isn't that redundancy?


My thought is the the OPA goes into an anti-static bag should be sufficient, right? (it will stay inside the tube).



Allow $25 for some anti-static bag.

The foil was posed as an alternative to the bag. Bags are relatively cheap.

The chips will stay in the tube with a rubber band around it end for end.

I just found this group buy. Is it too late to get on board. (this is also the first group buy I have gotten in on, so I am not 100% familiar with the procedure for getting parts.)

Thanks!

dfdye - welcome aboard. We are just beginning the order process. Get ye over to the WIKI and add your needs to the list.

The normal procedure is you express interest and then the predicted volume establishes the pricing. Then the GB volunteer ttells us how to pay, when the money is collected the order is placed. The volunteer receives the goods and reships to us.

Excellent! The timing is PERFECT as I am just about to start a set of active crossovers. I just hope I won't cause too many problems being the noob in the process!
