Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: MOTM

Stocking these sort of parts and offering them to MOTM users is
something I've been considering. A small part of one of my
businesses consists of some custom electronics work and we do
currently stock some parts which are used in the MOTM. Although I'm
quite swampped at the moment, I'll try and determine whether we
could do this and how much we would have to charge to make the
service worthwhile.
I really don't want to make up complete kits necessarily, I don't
want to buy and resell stooge brackets and panels for instance. But
I don't believe we'd have a problem purchasing 100 LEDs or a larger
quantity of certain parts. There are some parts that we currently
buy 5000 at a time.
We could possibly offer kits for doing the Blacet to MOTM
conversions, Oakley to MOTM or CGS to MOTM as well if there was
enough interest, with those kits not including such things as
circuit boards, brackets or panels. In other words you would still
have to order those items from Oakley or Ken Stone for instance.
I'll try to set up a spread sheet with some of the most popular
projects and look at quantity pricing to determine if it's
worthwhile.
Possibly one of the stooges could email me off list. If either of
you guys could give me a list of the most popular panels so I could
get an idea of the popularity of different projects it would help me
decide whether to pursue this or not.
My business ships internationally, and will be set up to accept
credit cards around the first of the year, and as I said we could
certainly buy enough of a given item to get quantity breaks,
providing it looks like the interest is there and we could
eventually resell the parts.
