Wow Jim, they used to only give free shipping on 99 bucks or over! Nice to see under that now...

Arrow has been my goto vendor for ferrite material for a bit now... Very happy with them.

I just bought 12 #43 toroids from Arrow Electronics, partly for research, but mostly to get free shipping on a small order. They shipped from the Netherlands, possibly to avoid tariffs. It is my understanding that this tactic is rather widely used. Bottom line -- if you're buying stuff like this, it's worth shopping around, especially with vendors with significant world-wide presence. I've found Arrow to be a particularly good vendor for relatively small purchases -- free shipping for web orders over $50 for anything in stock.
