It can be a valuable asset and should never be overlooked when pursuing potential clients. I was just reminiscing a bit. $30 out, can mean so much more than $30 in, if they keep that card, I get it. I went through about 3000 cards in the early years.
Scan it and show us what you got Mister. I will return the favour. My cards have progressed over the years and I'm not sure what are on file anymore.

I have to admit I havent tried KerryGold cheese, I've tried the butter - I prefer Lurpak!
In fact, I havent seen KerryGold branded cheese, but the cave aged Welsh and Irish Cheddars are nice (Colliers and Isle of Man are good smaller brand - as opposed to the Cathedral city and other LARGE brands which we are flooded with.)
Colliers is seriously good, simultaneously sharp and creamy.
Saw a special on a camera - mic combination for the computer. Don't have one, but I almost do now. Should arrive tomorrow it says (UPS, so I don't believe it).

Hi haiqu,
I guess we aren't going to see you then, not for a bit anyway.
Hi amplidude,
My biggest problem is storing all the good deals.

I bought an album on-line on April 1, it was mailed the next day from Florida. I got it yesterday. I should have just walked to pick it up.

Right? Blame CBSA though, not CPC. Once CPC actually gets the shipment, they delivery it quickly.

Serious bargain there. I have recently reached the bottom of my "useful odd bits of wire" box and looked on ebay for some 16ga. stuff for general work, crossovers, etc. Holy Cow (!) when did ordinary stranded copper get so expensive. I'm starting to get to the last dregs of a lot of stuff I've been hoarding for years and when looking to top up my supplies I'm shocked at what prices have done while I wasn't watching. Now that postage charges are getting stupid I mostly buy from China with free delivery. That effectively slows any project down to a crawl because delivery from China takes about a month to France.

While, generally true, it's not the case now. AFAIK, the current extra delays in stuff from China is all CPC, with huge backlogs in the distribution centres as they work with social distancing.
Old bones.
Hope you get lucky too, yes cables are crazy expensive.
I was in same situation and was ended up with a box off short no good cables.
And they're actually silicone, very soft.

I quite like silicone for test leads, etc. Saves time. The cheapass plastic ones that come with most meters, etc. have to be beaten into submission before they can be used.

Naah. I don't have anywhere to set these up yet. Will still be around for a while. 🙂
A sieve and a set of plasticstuff used for frying and cooking stuff from IKEA.
Also sent an order to Swedish Electrokit for assorted components, among them a bunch of potentiometers for a future replacement of the old potentiometers in my Polivoks.
Some components from German Reichelt for a Mutable Instrument's CVpal (USB-MIDO to CV/trigg/gate).
Oh, by the way, also bought a panel, a PCB and a preprogrammed ATtiny84 for the CVpal.

Hi amplinude 🙂,

Exactly!Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

The AC compressor I bought in December I finally had fitted.
Just shy of 400$ for labour, refrigerant, oil, and the seals. Not bad really.
