This thread is amazing, my mind is blown with all of this info....<*mind blown*>

Quick question, may be on this thread and I've missed it,makos looked online most of the night and today, from what I can read, and see,the only way you know if it's "tant" is if you see a "k" with. "|" next to it correct? Or your a vet at this and you just know, is there anything else that makes themselves know? Any features on the small stuff, lettering, codes, numbers etc?

Again apologies if I've missed it, or maybe I need to be redirected to another site, thread.

Thanks for you continued patience.

P.s. would you accept international shipments (that's if I ever get enough) ?

Sent my very first shipment to this company but unfortunately things are not going too well. Giving it a few more days to see if they can find the package that P.O. shows was delivered to them on Jan 2nd. Wasn't a large amount of product thank goodness, but frustrating nonetheless. Will update post in a few days.

If you would like we will pay your invoice while USPS looks for the package. It is really not a major issue for us, I am quite surprised that we are causing you frustrations as I personally am answering you on the emails. If you would like please call me directly 800-805-9150 - I am available today as well.

Anytime a package is lost it IS frustrating, does not matter if it is worth 1.00 or 100.00....it's frustrating. Sorry if my earlier post frustrated you but it was my understanding we should leave feedback for buyers, which is what I did. I also updated my post with final outcome. And yes we emailed one another for 2 days, that was never an issue to my knowledge. It's done and over, it's all good.

Nonetheless we have processed payment for .78/Lb of Tantalum Capacitors, The funds transferred this morning were $19.50 USD

Please confirm that you have received funds requested.

WOW....REALLY, now that's professional! All this over 19.50.....you seem to be making a mountain out of a mole hill and YES, NOW I'M FRUSTRATED. After this I believe h**l will freeze over before I would do business again.

I see these caps on telecom boards all the time and have thought about removing them but haven't so far. I'm just wondering how long it took you to remove the .78/Lb of caps.

It took me approx two months. I took a few off here and there as to not downgrade my board. It takes ALOT of tanti's before you see any weight increase. I was curious and gave it a try, not worth the time involved in my opinion. But again that's just my opinion. Great prices on tantalum if you can get the volume though, good luck to everyone.

Looks like someones panties are a bit out of adjustment?

UPDATE - Evidently small package is MIA in Florida, with the holidays and snail mail it is entirely possible! Company went ahead and paid me for lost product as a customer courtesy. Payment was prompt once issue was brought to their attention. I would not hesitate sending them another package as I believe this was not their fault.

Ok, so I have been silently reading post and been trying to work on these to make more cash than what I have been. I am gonna sort out everything that I know is what you are looking for. I have these really tiny capacitors and trying to get a good clear pic is not going well on my phone. These are about as wide as pencil lead and have close to the same color as pencil lead. Are these also the type you are looking for? I have been pulling them off and putting then in a container, but wanna make sure before I get to many and they not be correct,

Thanks
Tim

i found some smd tanti's on an old style h-p computer scanner
