Ask your administrator if you think this is wrong. ====== Vendors ====== If you are editing this page, remember that this is a directory of companies that primarily sell **new** parts, while the [[resources:surplus|surplus]] page is intended for shops that sell used or salvaged parts and equipment. There is necessarily some overlap between the two. If you think a retailer sells both types of items, then it's ok to add it to both lists. ===== Mail Order ===== ==== Electronics ==== === Big Suppliers with Large, Heavy Catalogs === * Allied Electronics - http://www.alliedelec.com/ * Digikey (Thief River Falls, MN) - http://www.digikey.com * Element 14 - http://us.element-14.com/ * Newark / Farnell / Element 14 are all part of the same company (Premier Farnell). The many faces of Farnell are confusing. I don't think Element 14 actually has a printed catalog. What is Element 14's online store - another interface to Newark or Farnell's catalog? Something else? I'm not sure. --- //jeff 01/15/2011 12:12// * Mouser - http://www.mouser.com * Mouser is located in Mansfield, TX (near Ft. Worth), so UPS ground shipping to Austin is usually overnight.

Cheap prices, I've seen some complaints of long shipping times. --- //jeff 10/03/2011 16:01// * Tayda Electronics http://www.taydaelectronics.com * Cheap components, located in Thailand. * dipmicro http://www.dipmicro.com * Canadian components store. === Small Companies / Boutique Shops === These are smaller companies that generally cater to the hobbyist market, although some of them are getting quite large (eg.
