Hey Radar,  I made the mistake of ordering my slider post from Mouser Electronics.. (the were cheap I think I paid 12 bucks for all the pots I got) But UPS charged 5 bucks for shipping and a $35 brokerage fee to bring them across the border..  A Total waste of time.

If I was to order again, I would order from Digikey.
