[sdiy] qingpu jacks in china

[Chris McDowell]

Even if Thonk did have that ability, I'm trying to skip the multiple ocean crossings for these parts. I have a sizeable stash here in Texas, have already shipped some to JLCPCB, and don't want to do it again!

I will explore the parts request option. It seems like for parts you can't get from a distributor it gets more complicated.

I'm looking for a reseller or broker in China as I'm consigning them to JLCPCB and don't want them to cross all the oceans unnecessarily.
