Re: [TCML] caps for quarter shrinker question

[garry neeley <bamacoiler@xxxxxxxxx>]

DC,
And anybody else interested. I have 30 total 2.25uf 15kvdcw capacitors for
sale.  DC, last year you mentioned you would be interested in buying some.
Are you still interested?  I can send pictures to anyone upon request.  If
interested just make a reasonable offer and it will probably be accepted.
(I NEED MONEY)  So dont be afraid to make a low offer, you never know what
might happen.  My loss is your gain.
