[sdiy] ebay resistors recommendations for values and quantity

[mike ruberto]

That is an excellent assortment of values. If you don't want to wait

I recently ordered $40 of resistors from them and am pleased with the
wervice and the products. They actually helped me figure out a problem
I was having with my Paypal account and then got my order to me faster
than another store I placed an order with a few days earlier.
