I understand why one would want to buy the good stuff, like real orange drops. But the bulk ebay brown drop caps have saved me tons of money, and I haven't had a single failure. I wouldn't use them in something valuable, or critical, but for old tube radios, PA amplifiers and other such applications, they are great. It's also nice to have all the values I need in stock, all the time, for minimal cost.

See attached how I organized them (box not from ebay) . Everything in that box cost me under $50, I've refilled the 0.047s and 0.1s a couple times but the rest are still from the initial order.
