Kuriakos · Mar 1, 2008

Electronics shops..

eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com/5-New-DB15-Male...yZ109438QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

Other online electronics suppliers.. Mouser? MCM?

I am capable of doing a google search, I was trying to see what other companies people on here use and can vouch for.

I've ordered from Vetco in the past. It looks like Jameco has them too, and I've also ordred from there. I also have experience ordering from Mouser.

I had no issues ordering from any of those 3 sites.

I was thinking about getting some stuff from Digikey. Is there a reason you don't want to order from them?

I think I can get them cheaper from elsewhere.

buaku · Mar 1, 2008

Sounds reasonable!

Vetco seems cheap if their description is right that you get 10 for $6.60.

Kuriakos · Mar 1, 2008

indeed 66 cents per connector versus $1.04 from digikey. Thanks for the source!

No prob! I was thinking of getting a few from there next time I placed an order. At first I was going to order 2 males and 2 females, then I read the description saying it was a 10pack. 20 of each would be a bit overkill, hehe.

10 pack at 6.60 nice

i needed a few .... check if they have paypal payment

Side question to all this. Where can one find the plastic ones found on the AES, Atari 5200 and some MVS boards? I would prefer these myself to keep a consistent look to my builds. Thanks!

Kuriakos · Mar 2, 2008

That's a good question, digikey has some, but they are blue, and they cost like a dollar more.

If you're ok with metalized plastic ones (DB15s I mean) Action Electronics has them for $0.53 each.

Try your local electronic store it should cost less than 25 cents to get one or just buy it online but I would buy multiple items so the shipping doesnt seem like a waste of money for a item that cost cents.
