I have also priced parts through PMB. All components for the MIDIbox 64 PCB by Greg McMillan  were quoted at less than $100 NZ (At time of writting $1 NZ = $0.58 US). This is by far the best price on parts I have come across in NZ.

Pots and Faders can be purchased from Surplustronics www.surplustronics.com  

I recently got a small number of Alps 100mm faders for $1 NZ each, Yes $1.

Unfortunatly, due to the nature of their bussiness (surplus stock) you can never be sure just what they will have in stock. All I can suggest it that you pop in once a week to check for new stock. Besides you never know what deal you will find (once I got 20m of Belden 12 way multicore cable for $20)
