You contacted them and bargained and then sent you the goods?

How much was the shipping.

I was about to buy the 58F total version for 125 usd. But these are far superior!

I asked the price and was quoted 130 for a set. But the shipping was 175 usd

Ecky, what was your shipping cost? It may wiser for me to piggyback on the shipment of another member and then have one of my friends mule them over from the USA.

I got 4 day shipping from them for around $35. I'm sure they could do slower freight for less.

I'll measure them later today, but they're just a little smaller than a normal drink can.

Edit: the datasheet says 6cm x 13.8cm per cap, so a string of 6 is around 84cm long.

Thank you for that information Ecky.

Just one of the many disadvantages of living in Bungholia.

It seems rhe best option for me is to have them sent to the usa and then have some one bring them over. Flying over to the usa and bringing them back myself is a feasible option.

The supplier for the capacitors has stated that the caps are new and genuine.
Shipping to the USA will cost 44 usd.

Any one in Seatle so I can have them shipped and then a friend who is visiting next week can come pick them up?

Still counts when the deadline is a week.

Kohls just sent me something from Portland to Salem, a 45min drive. It took them a week to send the item, and a day to ship it.
