Just a friendly warning, but I would *AVOID* that vendor like the
plague. They charge a $15 minimum S/H which is totally ridiculous,
especially since anything they sell can be obtained elsewhere and
sometimes with *free* shipping.
I found good heatshrink deals when refurbishing my R7, it just took a
little more looking to be sure I was getting the best deal.
I personally am not made of money, but those of you with plenty may
feel free to ignore this message and continue to pay too much.
