One of my sons passed along this link:

http://tgimboej.org/Box_Tracking
http://blog.wired.com/geekdad/2008/05/the-great-inter.html

I am willing to start something like this -- every week or so I sweep off my workbench and into a box go MOSFETs, resistors, BJT's, screws, connectors, etc. -- it takes more time to sort through the stuff, etc., etc.

So I'd start a web-ring -- you get the box take what you want, put in some stuff you don't need and pass it along to the next DIYAUDIO'r.

Flat Rate Box in the U.S. is $9.30 if you purchase the postage on-line.

Neat idea, but it seems like the real winner will be the post office. :dodgy:

Basically everyone will be paying $10 to the post office for a grab bag of unknown components.

And what are the rules if any? Say for instance I receive the box; can I empty the entire thing and then throw in a resistor or two and call it even?
