Does anyone know what happened to Hayseed Hamfest, the capacitor folks?
We've been using them for years, and suddenly they don't respond to e-mails. I know Tom Farland was getting up there in years, and I'm concerned that maybe something happened.
Anyone hear from them lately?

Tom once called me, at the start of our business relationship, which was about 5-6 years ago. I've been one of his top customers in terms of volume. However, I can't find any phone number for them. And it doesn't appear to be on their website.
My first contact attempt for the Marantz caps was on June 3. Followed up a week later. Then again a week after that. And also sent an inquiry via their website last night.
If I can't get a response, I will need to look for an alternate supplier for those caps that CE doesn't make.

Interestingly, the day after I posted this thread, I got an invoice from Hayseed. Not the usual banter from Tom, just an invoice. I paid it and yesterday I got a shipment notice, so it seems they are still operating.
I have a suspicion something happened to Tom and the rest of the staff has taken over. I'm concerned, because Tom was the backbone of the company and a really pleasant gentleman to work with. I'm hoping for the best.
