Jaycar is such a disappointing place now. Just gadgets for the most part, and a tiny selection of electronics parts that are almost always the crappiest and cheapest versions possible.

I buy most stuff I need from RS, Mouser, Element14, and DigiKey now.

Yeah it really is kinda sad compared to how it used to be, while I was getting my emergency iron, I got a plug and socket terminal block screw header thing, even though got some coming.... Thing was not good let's put it that way :(
