Re: [sdiy] Goldmine-Elec Parts Bags worth it?

[Roman]

	If grandpa Goldmine sells something very cheap, it means it's... very cheap, not to use the word "crap". It's even worse if they give it for free (they do sometimes). 

	Personally I'd never buy a mystery box. I did that when I was a kid and years later I trashed most of this stuff. 

	You can get old broken TV and probably salvage more usable parts from it. 
	OTOH I must admit, I have bought "goldpack" of 50 mini jack sockets for $2 and they were very nice. For that price of course. 
	BTW, anybody making 700-sliders matrix mixer or endless sequencer with box of sliders they sell cheap on ebay?

Temat: [sdiy] Goldmine-Elec Parts Bags worth it?

http://sales.goldmine-elec.com/prodinfo.asp?prodid=2371 (http://sales.goldmine-elec.com/prodinfo.asp?prodid=2371) this "electronics surprise box" seems like it could be pretty cool, especially as I have just about no spare parts lying around.  But am I missing something?  Are they (as I somehow expect) faaar smaller than the picture shown, or less full?  Anyone have any experience with these?
