Anchor's the only one left.I am trying to buy a few small components for a small project I'm working on with breadboards. Where can I buy parts in small quantities with low shipping prices? Thanks!
That is sad. From almost a dozen in the 90's... If they quit, the only choice will be salvaging from dumpsters.Anchor's the only one left.
I'd stop by Anchor Electronics in Santa Clara. I used to stop by and browse their "dollar" bags whenever I could spare the time when I was back in the Bay Area for vacation.I am trying to buy a few small components for a small project I'm working on with breadboards.

I was just about to say this, but I see I already didJameco isn't really a store; it's not a place you can go in and wander around.
You can order online or by phone, and pick up your order there.
I'll second Anchor - they're a small shop, not a surplus outfit, and most of the inventory is in the back - where THEY retrieve it (so it isn't a mess). In fact, the actual browseable inventory only amounts to a couple hundred square feet of space at the front end of the store. That said, most of the inventory is stuff you can just buy from a standard online distributor like Digikey, et-al. Still, I'll be down there in a couple of days, and they will be a stop for me.I'd stop by Anchor Electronics in Santa Clara.
