Assuming some people on here will be in this industry, but I need a job lot (50+, regularly) of micro USB chargers and cables.

Any recommendations of suppliers you've used for this who can turn it around quickly? Unfortunately eBay is not being helpful on this front as the price suddenly jumps when you select the options...

Have you looked at the amazon basics range?
Another leftfield choice could be the IKEA ones?

Try Stontronics or Sunpower, or see what's on Farnell or RS (or Amazon basics for small quantities).

I've been caught out before buying a job lot of Chinese made chargers that all rang/whistled before going pop one by one, and I've had USB cables that didn't match the USB spec (voltage drop too high) so wouldn't charge anything, oh and also a load of cables that were supposed to be data + charging but turned out to be charging only. There's so much tat out there it's safer to pay a bit more for a decent source.
