I ordered some BC550 and BC560 from Mouser awhile back but they never sent the BC560 and they never came back in stock after that. I'm looking for 100 or more BC560C to use with these for an upcoming repair.
My old ones are Fairchild, and the batch of BC550 I have is onsemi. Either of them would be fine.
They're definitely end-of-life. Onsemi and Digikey say obsolete.

"Restricted Availability" and "Non-Stocked, Call To Request a Quote" might be worth a call, and mention that they "lost" your earlier order for this part.
I'd check other authorized distributors, but I wouldn't expect them to have stock.
I'd just as well go to amazon (or ebay or whatever), I see 100 for less than $10, at that price and with it being only recently discontinued it seems those would be from surplus inventory and unlikely to be fakes. There are "legitimate" parts surplus businesess, but they tend to sell to military-related businesses, and there's no telling how much they would quote.
Or buy from amplidude and pay the shipping.

That is sad.. those critters have been my favourite for decades, still have some Phillips ones, but only 50 of each.
The 1800 I mentioned are not mine but a guy I know, maybe I should grab them all.
Ps has anyone with the right equipment ever tested those cdil and others up against a original datasheet, are they in spec , noise etc?

He wants 22 dollar for 100 pieces, I could reach out for a total grab price, I would want 300, that leaves 1500, I could send the 1500 to one of you, and you could redistribute them, might be a wacko thought.
But his price must go down before I'm in, as it stands now it is 22 cents a pop.
Let me know.

I like my bc to run hot and close to rails, I think they sound better pushed out of comfort zone
