  I buy a particular Waldom/Molex RJ45 connector in batches of 5,040 from
Newark.  They _doubled_ the price for no adequately explained reason.  I
called the factory: the factory has not raised the price at all.

  I am now buying an AMP connector that fortunately shares the same
footprint/mounting from Avnet in palce of the part Newark screwed me on.

  I am beginning to get annoyed at Newark.
