Where is the best place to order DC jacks? (I need one for a IBM Thinkpad but would like to find a place that I can order a wide range for future purposes)

THANKS

Radio Shack used to sell generic, variable-output AC to DC adapters 20 years ago for electronic projects. I don't know if they still do, but it may be worth checking.

Their catalog is freaking huge and I guarantee they'll have what you're looking for. But you'll get killed on the per-item shipping costs since they usually sell bulk items at a discount (bags of 100 units, etc.).

I've ordered from them before. They will have the one item you need that nobody else carries! ;)

Is this to repair the DC input/charging jack on the notebook? I've repaired about a dozen Toshibas with the same broken DC jack problem.

Thanks Mr_Smartepants and yes, it is to repair the part on the notebook. I have found them on ebay for under $3 with shipping. I just need to setup a account and PayPal
