I order all of my caps and resistors from Just Radios, the Cantalons. The last order I got had an error. I ordered the orange dip 2000vt caps and was sent yellow film 1600vt caps. I sent an email stating the error and got a response almost immediately. Dave said he was really sorry and that he would get them out the next day and to keep the ones he sent in error. Awesome customer service and I had the new ones two days later. That's why I will continue to buy from them. Awesome Service!
