Alternatives to Mouser
« on: November 19, 2012, »
Just curious if there are alternatives to Mouser that anyone recommend?  I live in Canada (if that helps). :-)

Thanks,
Shannon

Shannon,
Here are a couple that I have used. Not sure if they have anything in Canada.

Digikey also has a cheaper postal service shipping option which is great for the couple of 5 cent parts you are missing.

The two mentioned (Digikey and Newark) are the ones used along with Mouser for the COOPs.

I have also used Allied Electronics (however, I know for a fact that RJ is not a fan, because of a past transgression) so use with caution.

Also, for comparison shopping, always try Jameco.

I include them because they've always done good by me, not that I own it or work there.
