Title: Where to buy electronic parts in small quantity? (for ergodox assembly)
Post by: vatin on Sun, 25 May 2014, 04:24:33
Where can I get electronic parts for ergodox assembly in small quantity? I saw digikeys and rscomponents sell diodes in lot of hundreds. For those parts listed http://ergodox.org/Hardware.aspx that calls for only 1 piece, I need only a couple of those, in case I screw up. Where can I get those?

*Edit
Thank you all. I have completed my ergodox ;D

Since you are located in Thailand:  I've ordered from this place (via ebay) with success before http://www.taydaelectronics.com/

Seconded. Tayda is a popular source of components for amateur builders. I usually order from mouser, especially if I buy large quantities (100+ of one reference), but for small quantities and inexpensive shipping, tayda is rather good.

edit: okay, just saw you went with digikey. I'm leaving this post in case anyone wonders about tayda.
