Dunno what you're building, but I have stock on MAR-6, quite similar. If you could use them, I could spare a few.

A quick Google search led me to this ebaY Buy-it-Now: 3 x MAR-1 @ $6.67 USD for all three in what looks like original packaging, At my writing-time looks like five sets of three available today. Vendor in UK. Dunno about the payment, shipping and handling details - I'll leave that to you.

Hope this helps. I'm NOT affiliated with the ebay seller mentioned above in any way. Just passing

Why would you do this? Go directly to the Mini-Circuits site
(http://www.minicircuits.com) and order them, MAR-1's are $1.25 each.

There are cheaper ways to do it, and us homebrewing hams are always known as being cheap, but I've bought direct from the minicircuits website on several occasions and they always had the mixers I needed and they were always delivered in a day or two.

When Dan's Small Parts and Kits has the stuff it is sometimes cheaper.

Their shipping rates are outrageous

I order from minicircuits all the time, and making the minimum is no
problem for me....mixers cost $4 each and each kit takes 2.....I also
have to buy their transformers as well.

I'm aware of the outrageous shipping cost they charge to non-US
residents, so I do understand that it is very difficult to get MCL
parts outside the US at a reasonable cost.

If someone needs parts, send me an email.....especially if you don't
need it right away. There is a possibility I can piggyback your order
with mine. I just did a big order from them, so I likely won't be
ordering for a month or so. I notice the price break on the MAR-1 is
not significant, but if there is enough demand, it might be possible
to get reduced quantity discounts with a group buy.

Email me off list if you are interested in a Group Buy or if I can
help you by ordering a few and them mailing them to you.

I should also note that minicircuits has never charged me lass than
$10 for shipping, which is outrageous since the parts are light and
they are right down the road from me (1 UPS Zone difference). So they
don't give anything away hi hi.

Regards,

Art

Hi Leon,

You're fortunate to have a minicircuits in the UK. Quite a few
individuals in EU have told me they charge $100 for shipping of small
orders....which seems a little excessive.

Even if I had a $300 order, I would not pay $100 for shipping-so I
can imagine how difficult it would be for those non US buyers who
need just a few pieces of this/that!

Enjoy.

Art

As Art said, $100 is a minimum shipping expense that I get when bying from
Canada. Other US companies including big suppliers do it for $15-20.

Ivan

My order via a Canadian distributor was just this - an order. Shipment was
from the US, and the distrubutor just added his margin
