K9YC asked me about joining in NCCC's last bulk buy, but when it was 
costed out in detail the saving on list prices was completely overtaken 
by the extra costs of shipping and handling.... not to mention that 
hassle of organising it all.

Even though Mouser's list prices are higher, the 0.00 delivery charge 
makes the overall price unbeatable.

If you want big ferrite cores like FT240-31 in the UK, simply go to 
gb.mouser.com and order for yourself!
Links to the big Fair-Rite #31 ferrite cores recommended by K9YC are on 
my website. (No time to copy them right now - off down the pub for a 
nice Sunday afternoon playing music :-)

By all means combine orders with a friend or two (and include Mike 
VP8NO) but while the Mouser offer lasts, a bulk buying scheme would be a 
waste of time, money and effort.
