[Lowfer] Vendor Question

[Peter Barick]

Hi John, All the Rest!

I think you already have suspicions about Futurlec to posting this inquiry, and I'll add rightly so: Shipping Timeliness was an issue for a large diverse order for me about 5 years back. I ordered, waited and waited then eMailed those guys. They said wait. I thought I was being blown off yet I continued communications to finally hear that the order was stuck in some Pacific rim country and give it more time. Okay, about one month and the foreign-stamped package arrived, and complete. So, there's my experience. Buyer Beware.

Since it looks as if I can use my regular account once again, let me get 
adventurous with a second post in one evening.... 

Has anyone here dealt with a parts vendor called "futurlec"? They appear to 
be an Australian firm (with sales offices in NYC, London, and Bangkok) 
involved in hobbyist electronics stuff. I'm thinking I may need to deal 
with someone like them for some ICs I can't get from Digi-Key or Allied--at
