Where to buy single components (reasonably priced)?

[DRJP]

I'll be replacing a component or two on a board which I'm repairing. What's the best place to buy a single component or two other than Amazon or eBay? Or is Amazon or eBay a good place to start looking?

I have no idea if the location of these companies are any use to you as you give us no idea of your location in your profile.

RS
Farnell
Mouser

For one or two parts, most of the price you'll pay is in shipping. What kind of parts do you need?

Tayda Electronics is a good source for small quantities of components or to stock up on larger quantities to have them on hand. I'm a very satisfied customer.

That reminds me. I need to stock up on 0805 100nF caps and a few values of resistors. When my box of SMT components hit the floor, a couple compartments popped open, sending parts flying!

Tayda recently raised their shipping prices a lot.

I'm in Michigan. Just need a transistor and maybe a couple of diodes and a thermistor.

Funnily enough, I tried to reorder some parts from Tayda earlier today - and they were out of stock

We only order one specific part from them, so I've been trying to find another source - and settled on (possibly) Mouser, so ordered from there to see if their part will fit.

It's only a volume control, as used to be used in old eastern radios, but I couldn't find anything like it on AliExpress.

This is the part:

10K OHM Logarithmic Taper Potentiometer On-Off Switch Solder Lugs Knurled Shaft Dia: 6mm

ALPHA - Get It Fast - Same Day Shipping

www.taydaelectronics.com

$0.59 from Tayda, from Mouser it's over £2.50!.

Tried direct from Alpha Taiwan? Part # is RV170SF-10-17K-A10K and is still current according to their website.

I'll be in Auburn Hills next Wednesday - let me know what you need if you're close by. I have more inventory of through-hole parts than I'll ever use in my lifetime. .

It's a a bit of a hike over there and I'll be out of town. So...if I find out what I need, maybe I can get them from you? More than willing to pay for them + S&H.
