[R-390] Precision Resistor Straw Poll

GM List,
I purchased a 6.5 digit dvm and thought it might be a good idea to get some .01% precision resistors for cheeking it now and then.
I came across a vendor in China (where else) that is selling USED Vishay .01 % resistors of many different values: some common as 1K000 to 100K000 and others that are strange.
Single, with shipping they are $8 to $10.  If bought in lots of 10 the price drops quite a bit.
I would be willing to buy an assortment of values and sell them to the list members for $6 each plus postage from zip 92220 IF I can get a commitment from members for at least enough to break even.
My investment would be $300 to $400 for the parts and I might have to pay customs fees.
So I''ll need a commitment of 60 pieces before I'll make a large order.
IF there is enough interest, I pursue with a value selection table that would have a range of values between 1K and 100K.
If interested, please send me an ORIGINAL email (Yahooey sucks) stating your interest.  If it happens it will be a CUF deal.
Regards,
Perrier
