[ARC5] How Did This Happen?

[Joel R Roberts]

I haven't had any bid on my re-potted caps set, which was disappointing. 
I have had goo success with the ones I have made for personal use, and I 
have figured out the re-potting for the electrolitics. If anyone wants 
the story let me know. With the re-potted caps, the inside sure does 
look better than having the others hanging off of terminal strips and 
solder tabs. I will still supply them to the group for a bargain price, 
with a bit added for the parts and the labor involved. Always ready for 
challenges........73's,,,Joel   KB0FPT

It might be my imagination but the effectiveness of that stradegy seems to have dropped off over time as- I assume - other ebays have started to use the same trick.  Still there are occasional surprises and bargins to be found
