> Are people really dumb enough to buy samples on ebay? > I can imagine people will buy chips on ebay. Especially if they just want one of a chip and can't get a free sample for some reason (where they live, sample quota run out, simply aren't aware free samples exist and so on) and want to avoid the small order charges/ minimum order sizes that the big vendors give individual customers. How would the customer know where the ebay seller sourced the chips? -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
