content: I saw Farnell/Element14 have LT3080 in stock. They are like 6 euro's a piece, I dunno what that translates to in your currency .It's even available here without additional US shipping costs (last time I looked it costs 25 euro US shipping, ouch).

content: Quote from: Tooms on July 03, 2012, 03:46:24 pmJust wanted to note that I ordered from Tooms, and he shipped fast, well packaged (tube, antistatic, foam, and padded envelope). He also didn't over-charge for shipping. I think I paid €4 (to Norway), out of which he spent €3 on postage, and I would not be surprised if envelope, antistatic and what not cost more than €1, so if anything, he under-charged on shipping. I also had them in my hand 2-3 days after ordering, but Denmark to Norway is fairly fast, so ymmv.Updated links:LT3080http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Linear-Technology-LDO-LT3080-LT-3080-LT3080ET-Adjustable-1-1A-Single-Resistor-/140821735405?_trksid=p4340.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D1690310152775244378%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D3%26LT3083http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Linear-Technology-LDO-LT3083-LT-3083-LT3083ET-Adjustable-3A-Single-Resistor-/140821735383?_trksid=p4340.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D1690310152775244378%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26(note; I don't know the man, just figured it wouldn't hurt to mention my experience ordering from him... )tld

content: Quote from: tld on August 30, 2012, 11:46:38 amHi tldthanks for the post and it is good that you now got them.I am also buying alot of eletronics stuff from ebay and i hate when there is overchanging on the postage and i dont think it is fair, so i have chosen that i will be as fair as i can and not over changing and i am also trying to reuse packaging to keep the cost down.So i am not selling the parts because i plan to get rich via ebay, i was just missing some of the parts and as every one know then the cost-per-part is very high when only getting an low number, so i just order 100 of them from digikey so i got what i needed and then i am selling the rest on ebay..Thomas
