Hi all.

I'd like to know where can I order components. The problem is, there are no big distributors in my country, so getting parts is critical. Would prefer US/UK markets (looked in Radio Shack, no much choice..) , as have a lot of friends travelling back-forward.

Thanks.

 

In USA for new and non-surplus:

http://www.digikey.com/
http://www.mouser.com/
http://www.newark.com/

Digikey and Mouser seem to be favorites of hobbyists. There are others, such as Arrow, but they tend to cater to industry more. There are also several surplus dealers, but their selections are more limited. GoldmineElectronics, MPJA (mpja.com), and Jameco are three in that category.
