Today I ran across a couple of parts boxes that I was missing for quite a while. They were quite a treasure trove. Among the stuff in the was a couple hundred assorted 7400 series TTL, about 30 4000 series CMOS, 20 555s, a big collection of high quality caps of various sorts, some 0Ω resistors which I like to have handy, and among even more stuff, 85 MPF102 N-Channel JFETs which I find are currently going for about a buck fifty in singles.
All in all a pleasant surprise.
