SparkFun Electronics Forum

I just saw these cheap pnuematic valves:

A minimum order of 300 is a little out of my range, but if Sparkfun would offer them (even at twice the price of $4 each!) I'd be very happy to have access to them. A kit of the mini-pump, 6 actuators and some tubing that fits it all would be pretty amazing too.

Cheers,
James.

Try contacting the vendor – they may sell you a lower quantity even if they say 300 on that page.

Thanks Micheal, that's a good idea. I'd still love it if spark fun started carrying that sort of product... that way they'll "accidentally" end up in my cart when I next order something!
