[Boatanchors] Source for resistors and disk caps needed

[Carl]

I buy in bulk from new stock Ebay surplus sellers most of the time; these 
dealers vary with what is available so Ive no particular favorite.
Buy odd value caps, any halfway decent tech knows that a radio wont know the 
difference between a .01 and a .012 or even .015 in most cases. The same 
with a .056 in place of a .047 and so on and so on. Always go higher in 
value as the radio has the absolute minimum value that will work....and 
costs less.

Mouser fills in the holes and I usually buy my resistors there 100-500 at a 
time.
Mouser also usually has the best quantity prices on caps.

Does anyone have a place that they have ordered disk caps and resistors?

It seems like every time I need to place a order for a few resistors and 
disk caps to rebuild a boatanchor, I have to go to several places to get 
what I need; it would be nice to have just ONE place to go to get my 
"stuff"!

I don't need to know where you MIGHT be able to get them, just a place where 
someone has already ordered from. . . .

TIA
