Quite simply..... Mouser. I've tried the others, from time to time, and
always return to Mouser. They have what I need and I have not been
disappointed with items not being in stock. As an aside, the price of
can electrolytics from Antique are... well, let's just say overly
expensive for what you get. I simply put small tubulars underneath the
chassis and be done with it. de K3HVG

Yeah, unfortunately not this time... no stock on anything from 20 to 50 uf
and 450 to 600 volts. Best guess on delivery is mid December, which
almost always means "at the earliest".

In this case the small axial-lead tubulars is what I need.

Their tubular axial leads aren't bad, though... I just found some 47-uf
450-volt axials for $2.81 each vs. $10 - $16 for Mouser and Digikey (the
ones of which they have no stock).
