I was looking at getting one of Netburner's cheap NNDK-MOD5270LC kits,
but ordering from Netburner's online store would add a minimum of $95 in
shipping charges which is kind of taking the piss for a $99 kit.
Netburner list Mouser and Digi-Key as distributors, but neither seem to
be carrying this particular kit. Are there any other distributors or
resellers that carry this kit?
This is an issue for us.
Our goal with the NNDK-MOD5270LC kit was to make the lowest possible cost 32 bit network kit.
We wanted to do it in a sustainable way. We can sell the $99 kit forever, its not a short time special.
but just break even on this kit. It's primarily a sales tool to get people to use our modules or license our tools.
If we offered the 99 kit through distribution they would want the distributors margin and it would be a loss for us.
I realize that the shipping costs are significat, but even with the $95.00 shipping you are getting what was
a $299 kit for less than $200. It is still a lot lower cost than the competitiors.
