Best place to find bulk old mixed up electronics components

[jeff davis]

TL;DR

i'm looking for a good source for bulk old electronics components. Like the equivalent to somebody's junk drawer for components. Like old wound resistors and caps and that sort of thing?

Hello,
Anybody have any good sources of mixed up old electrical components? For example: an old drawer full of mixed up resistors and capacitors; wax caps and jumbled up stuff?

I have a HUGE jar that I am trying to fill up with this type of thing for my lab and was just wondering if anybody knew of some sites that sell in this way or something similar? Other than ebay of course.

thanks,

jeff

I think the key search term you are looking for is "Grab Bag".

Here is a Google search on electronics grab bag -- lots of choices
