Every time I'd show my dad some bargains, he'd usually say he couldn't afford to save that much money.

Does the supplier tell you who made those resistors ?

No. Motorola Minion Dave got a set and found the resistances "right on". On that recommendation, I decided to try a set.

I believe they are Elenco resistors. It looks like they have recently went under. I reckon that is why they were bargainized. I've not had any problems with them either. They're a inexpensive way to develop a parts bin.

I must have misunderstood his question. Sorry. I knew the brand, but don't know who made them. The reason I considered the kit was that I need several resistors for my project. I may not use all the values, but perhaps someone on the forum can use what is excess to me.

I got a few divided parts boxes at Harbor Freight and set them up in those. They have come in handy over various units.

I received the resistors in today's post. They said it would take 5-7 days to get here, it took six.
And, if you are in California and you eat them, that can cause cancer or reproductive harm......

This week they have a voltage tester for a ridiculously low price and on the bottom of the page, a pack of 4 ceramic capacitors.

That looks kind of cool, are you getting one?

I am well-satisfied with the resistor kit I got from them.

I'm tempted at a price like that!
