Has anyone got shipments from them lately? Because I am pretty sure they are down for the chinese new year, which if you know anything about chinese companies, lasts 15 days  >:(

I got a notice email than an order has shipped. I suppose someone is at the office.

This was my first inkling as well, except they're in Thailand.
The only known cure in the world for GAS is death.  That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Just got an order from them yesterday that I ordered last Friday.  Mine was only $26, though. I'm not quite the player you guys are :-[

I would stay away from ordering foot switches and other hardware from Tayda, I have a whole batch of 3pdt that are totally unusable for customer builds (the nuts dont thread properly and slip and pop off, cant tighten them down at all), and probably half the DC jacks I ordered are total garbage as well.  Cant beat their prices on passives and whatnot though.  Chinese New Year stuff should be ending today, so I am hoping for a new cupon code next week.

That's strange man, i have had no problems thus far with anything from there :/ maybe i have been lucky, and this is the calm before the storm ;)

Well, I agree with DTR, that the majority of their hardware isn't made as well, but in sure there are exceptions.  In addition to the foot switches and jacks, I'm not terribly fond of their toggles as well.

But for most of the electrical components they are a great deal.

Their alpha pots are fine.

That`s what I wanted to hear . For that price if they are as good as the ones smallbear sells that`s an easy choice .

Yeah, I have no doubt about that since their the same manufacturer.  I just don't buy them because I prefer solid shaft pots.  I wish they carried those.

I guess maybe I took one for the team then! I was in a pinch for a soecific part and placed a fairly large order along with it. I figured I might as well since I was going to pay for shipping anyway...

hammerheadmusicman
