No, since it contains values you hardly ever use in the same quantity as other values which you may run out of in one repair job.

But, after that, and the not that great price tag, it can be a damn handy set to have around.
Sorry. Plain out of planes.

+1 on that! I find myself using 1µF, 4.7µf, 10µF 22µF, 47µf and 100µF electro's over and over again. None of those at a 50V rating vill set you back more than $0.04 a piece from tayda ;) Price for 120 pieces is about the same as the link you posted, but what's good about it is that you get to choose the values you need, instead of bulk buying stuff you don't need ;)
