    I tried doing business with her company but they wouldn't ship to my box number, which at the time, was at a UPS Store. So, I use Amazon and Mouser which is ironic because Amazon carries Adafruit, and I believe at the same or lower price. The lady looks great but the company's shipping policy is lame. Even when I am home, the delivery people only slow down when they pass my house so they can throw the package in the bushes! Too busy to walk to my front door and ring the bell! It was interesting when I had my Alpha 86 delivered to my PO Box. The PO Box people were very nice about it.
