Audio Systems: Peavey Fader Knobs, goodwill charity, other than ebay


Question
Hello Mr Smith
Thank you for your service on this site.  Do you know of any web sites other than Ebay where I might find a selection of various Fader Knobs for audio Mixers --- Just the little rectangular plastic things that slip over the "blades" of the pots sticking up out of a board faceplate.  I cannot believe what a bear of a time I am having finding those things;  and I'm pretty good at googling things.  I was very fortunate in finding a Peavey Unity Series 2002 16 channel mixer at the Goodwill charity store for fifty dollars and it works perfectly. It's simply missing all 20 of its cosmetic slider knobs (16 channels and 4 subs)and I'm trying to find some for a low price, but can't seem to find a good outlet that sells them in bulk.  I will still be getting a good deal if I pay premium price of approx $35 for a piecemeal set, but if you know of anyone who sells them for cheaper please let me know.  They don't have to be a cosmetic match --just fit snugly on the blades of the pots. -- In short, do you know of any outlet or depot that sells stuff like that at a bargain?
---Thanx tons

Answer
Hi Jim,

I'd recommend http://glenwoodsales.com/ first. The guy there has pretty much any electronic parts in stock. Their warehouse is near my house, and when I go, I never ask "do you have x?" I always ask "where do you have x?" because they almost always have what I'm looking for.

I've also had good luck with Allied Electronics at http://www.alliedelec.com/

There's also Peter Parts. I've never used them, but I've heard great things. Check out http://www.peterparts.com/

Good luck!
