I asked "AE-Europe" company from Netherlands about the prices for chokes and power transformer I used in my SE 300B project, if someone is interested. Today I received the answer, and the prices are:

"Centurion" power transformer with hood is Eur 58,- (~$70)
Grid chokes (amorphous "C"-core) Eur 60,- a pair (~$73)
Power supply chokes 10H 250mA 100 Ohm Eur 14,- each (~$17)
Power supply chokes 10H 150mA 140 Ohm Eur 12,- each (~$14.50)

115V (USA) is no problem. Shipping cost and delivery time (US or other countries) - best to ask direct, depends on location.
They have nice OPTs, too - but I didn`t try them yet, just the PT and chokes mentioned above - those are high-quality products with good prices, IMO.
Of course, I have no affiliation with "AE-Europe" company other then being the customer.

Hi Damir,

These are very good product prices indeed.

But, shipping from Europe to the US can be quite expensive.

Did you get any shipping quotes to the US? What did you have to pay for shipping on these items?

Thanks

Norris

Huh, I didn`t get any shipping quotes, I`ll ask again. I only remember the last time I ordered grid chokes, small/light package and postage was $24...but across the Europe (NL-CRO). PT is heavy, but grid chokes and PT+hood are rel. low price, and maybe even with postage they wouldn`t be too expensive? As I said, I`ll ask again...

Hi Damir,

Thanks for the picture, the visual pictures helped me to realize just how robust the build quality of these transformers and chokes are, very good.

As for shipping, even if it is the double cost over buying comparable products in the US. They are more than likely still a bargain. Apples to Apples!
