47000µF; 63V cap, series 154, "Schraubanschluss""
Sorry Piersma,
I could not find this specefic part in the Schuro pricelist.
Apparently your cap is a special offer as it was Euro 52.50 in the 2001 Thell pricelist.
Thell now offering the part for Euro 46.
I am totally confused by the price of Euro 12. I did not find it in your link😕 Or do you have to buy 100 pieces?😕

Hi Elso,
I am not planning to buy these caps at Thel in Germany.
The link is only posted as an example for the mentioned caps.
You are right............ it is a little bit confusing.

I am interested, are there also other values (100V voltage)?
Can you estimate shipping costs for some (say 6-10 of them ) to Italy?
Cheers
Andrea

Re: 12000µF caps
In another thread called "Cheap Parts Worldwide" I talked to AMT Freak (who lives in Germany), an he seemed willing to help me out about this problem.
Provided we don't stress him too much
he might become our reference for schuro bulk shopping.
Of course if he has time and desire to do so.
Cheers

Caps Offer
Hi,
To put the record straight, Piersma is offering the cap for Euro 12 whereas Thel is offering this one for Euro 46.😉

Maybe we can combine some of your orders into one, this way you'll save money and I'll save time 😉
I'll still be quite busy for the next 2 weeks (exams), and the following months I'll be flying as many hours as I can, but there'll probably be some rainy days for packaging and shipping... No problem really, my kitchen already looks like a warehouse 😉

BC CAPS
AMT-freak,
Thanks for the offer made........
To make it clear, i am gonna purchase these caps over here in Holland and sent these caps abroad for anyone interested.
There is only a little problem with the shipping cost involved.
Sendings outside the Benelux cost almost euro 50 for packages from 0-5 kg.
Any suggestion ?

Wow, that's really expensive!
A small package (max. 2kg + size restrictions) shipped through the German postal service costs 7.70€ for European destinations and 9.70€ for the rest of the world. There are extra charges for air mail (e.g. 1kg: +2,10€ for Europe, +8.70€ for rest of the world)
Packages above 2kg are much more expensive, so it is a good idea to split them up. 2kg is plenty, though.
Is there really no similar offer in your country? (I'd be surprised, as the German postal service has a really bad reputation - there are cartoon series about this company)
And I'd like to add: I really don't want to interfere or be a competititor - I just had the idea of forwarding orders for people that otherwise cannot order from German companies... And I hope that other people participate and, for example, make it possible for European citizens to order cheap parts from USA.

Hi!
I would buy some, but not for 50 € postal costs... With those costs I could easily buy them at Farnell et al...
Is it not possible to send them cheaper to Germany?
Thanks,
Arndt

Postal costs
I have been offered better prices for shipping costs.
For shipping packages up to 2.5kg the costs are approximalty 18-20 euro's within Europe.
I hope these are costs are acceptable for anyone interested.
I would be glad to sent a greater number of caps to one country so you guys could share shipping costs.
Regards,
Piersma

And how many of those caps could be packaded into a up to 2.5 kg box?
I personally would only need two or four of them, so if someone from Germany needs more, maybe we could order together...

As Piersma already knows I am in for 6 of them, if anyone from Italy wants some we can lower forwarding expenses.
I live near Milano.
PS If there are other sizes and voltages available (at such bargain prices) please let us know.. I'd need also higher and lower voltage types
Cheers
Andrea

A thing we should speak of: payment
As the number of bulk-purchases increases I think it is time to talk about the easiest (and cheapest) way to send money to the ones who find a good offer and give us the possibility to get good parts at an affordable price.
I personally prefer Paypal, since it is almost immediate and almost free, so much cheaper than bank transfer (in Italy it costs about 20 euro to send money on a foreign bank!!).
What do you think about it?
