Hey Sam,

Cheers for getting back to me. Just gave it a shot! Will see what they say.

Thanks for the help.

Viv,

I wasn't that impressed with Connector People (they don't even have proper on-line payment), so took a chance on getting free samples from the manufacturer, Tyco (TE connectivity). I asked for three, but only got approval from them to provide 1; took just under 4 business days for sample order approval, but dispatch was lightning fast. Arrived next day to Sydney from Europe via UPS!

http://www.te.com/usa-en/product-827229-1.html, then click "Get Sample" button. You have to register and provide some project information justifying the need for samples.

Worth a try. Not sure there's a better alternative. "Online Components" have a price match option you could try (since Connector People's price is better) at http://www.onlinecomponents.com/te-connectivity-amp-brand-8272291.html?p=10511571, select "Price Match Request", but I'm not sure they'd bother for 1 unit, since their base price is over $25 USD.

Haven't tried this but Aliexpress will do 5 for $40.80 USD, and the delivery speed is worse than you reported for Connector People.

Cheers,
Sam.
