This. One of the few reasons I still use eBay sometimes is the obscure part sellers who can have lots at insanely good prices.

yeah, ask him if you can borrow them.
then decide what value you like and get some.

i like to experiment.
i usually grab a few different values (i have a *pot bag*, lulz)
and just try them out. many times i will see the range seems
to big, (e.g. half the pot does nothing, or has no change)
other times its too small (turning the pot a tiny bit make a
huge change). just play around till you find an adequate value.

i would love to be able to do that, but i don't have any pots lying around. my girlfriend's dad has a ton though, maybe i can ask him about it.
