CincYnoTi Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 There is a monstrous warehouse doing a multiple month liquidation sale. There is an entire floor of hardware/electronics from industrial pumps down to computer components and nuts and bolts. There are a bunch of rows of bins full of chips, sockets, switches, diodes and doo-dads. If anyone has any ideas of what they might want in bulk or be of value, let me know and I'll see if they have any. Some of the staff was helpful, others were surly and ornery (like the guy that wouldn't help find an RCA adapter). Here are a couple pics, bins of chips, some DB-9 parts, two-piece coax-to-RCA solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Looks like those connectors are free floating in the air. Till I noted the scratches on the glass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincYnoTi Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 Yeah, I couldn't talk the guy at the counter down from $1.25 apiece for those two connectors, even for everything in the case. My better half came back later and negotiated like 75% off or more on about a thousand fuses. I think I'll let her do all the talking next time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Do they have any of the PREH TV3 ME5A SZ2 power switches that the old Atari and Commodore monitors use? I'll take a few if they have them at a reasonable price. Thanks, Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwilkson Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 If they have any cans of DeOxIt D5, I can take a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincYnoTi Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) This stuff is like searching for a needle in a haystack...without knowing what a needle looks like. Can you post a picture of these things? I tried googling the PREH power switch and it wasn't helpful. And what's a reasonable unit price... $0.50, $1.00 ??

CincYnoTi Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 My bad, this one was easy enough to find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I just typed PREH TV3 ME5A SZ2 into google and it pulled up several pictures. Here's one: https://schriefers-fernsehen.de/de/preh-netschalter-fuer-fernsegeraete-identifikation-s-h-bilder-neu-428.html I think under $5 is reasonable.

cwilkson Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 That's the new style DeOxIt can. Bummer. I was hoping for some of the older style cans that don't leak all over everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincYnoTi Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 Sorry guys, I spent a half hour looking at power switches and nothing matched. Funny, I asked the guy where are switches and some other things and he will only say "Aisle J somewhere", "Look down that way", "we don't have that". When I showed him a pic of the DeOxIt, he says "What about it?" Umm... do you have any?...No At least I did pick up some sockets for one AA member. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
